Wireless not working unless Ethernet cable plugged in

  • C

    Hi,

    i am using ethernet and wifi station mode together. Unfortunately the wireless connection stops working if ethernet cable is unplugged.
    Please have look at my network and firewall settings:

    This problem only occurs if the ethernet is plugged during the boot-up and is removed later. The wireless connection connection stops working at this moment.

    If the ethernet cable is plugged after boot-up and is then removed, the wireless connection remains totally correct.

    This seems to be a FIRMWARE-BUG.

    Hi, which firmware version are you using ? (just for information).

    Updated to 0.3.2 b218 two hours ago (Omega 2+). Problem remains. Additionally static ip network setup fails now. Worked with the delivery version.

    Yes, static IP setup fail from old versions, I need to setup gateway manually for internet access, see this post:

    I'm using firmware 0.3.2 b217 (Omega2+).
