Wifi Seems to Connect then Immediately Disconnect?

Hirokazu Tei

Hello, I have two Onions and they both seem to exhibit an issue.

Initially, it seems like I couldn't connect to my wifi.
Upon further investigation, it seems that after I do wifisetup, I can momentarily ping 8.8.8.8, but disconnects right after.

If someone could help, it would be much appreciated!

Here are some ouptuts:

@Hirokazu-Tei said in Wifi Seems to Connect then Immediately Disconnect?:

0.1.5 b130

That is an extremely old firmware.

Upgrade using oupgrade --latest and retry.

I would love to update this little guy, however, I cannot connect wifi in the first place so I also cannot download the update.

Is there a way to oupgrade --latest without needing internet connectivity from the onion?

Thank you!

you will need to get a copy of the *.bin from the onion server somehow which requires internet. you can try to download directly from server.
http://repo.onion.io/omega2/images/ and then flash that.
look in the documentation for the instructions.
https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/
look for download to usb storage.
https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/manual-firmware-installation.html
if you have a dock with usb then,
https://docs.onion.io/omega2-docs/usb-storage.html#usb-storage
otherwise a serial cable will help in the transfer.

@Hirokazu-Tei So you have two Omegas, one of them Omega2 with a fairly old v0.1.5-b130 FW and its Internet connection works sometimes.

These are the latest FWs in http://repo.onion.io/omega2/images/

with the MediaTek WiFi driver v0.1.10-b160
with the new Warp Core WiFi driver v0.2.0-b192

Try to download one of them directly to your Omega2 and install it - for example:
cd /tmp
wget http://repo.onion.io.s3.amazonaws.com/omega2/images/omega2-v0.2.0-b192.bin
(or try to copy the downloaded file from your desktop to the /tmp dir of your Omega2)

sysupgrade omega2-v0.2.0-b192.bin

BTW What type of dock and extension do you have please?
Good luck!
