Wifi connection problem with Omega2

  • G

    No luck with this one either. I tried the "fix" in the other thread in /etc/config/wireless but it didn't work either. Below is what I see whey I tell wifimanager to do its thing:

    I'v tried firewall settings on my other Omega2+. FAIL. Just as for you, it did nothing. I'm starting to think that the Omega itself is actually broken.

    Here is /etc/config/network from a working WiFi-setup:

    
config interface 'loopback'
        option ifname 'lo'
        option proto 'static'
        option ipaddr '127.0.0.1'
        option netmask '255.0.0.0'

config globals 'globals'
        option ula_prefix 'fd1d:48c4:7633::/48'

config interface 'wlan'
        option type 'bridge'
        option ifname 'eth0.1'
        option proto 'static'
        option ipaddr '192.168.3.1'
        option netmask '255.255.255.0'
        option ip6assign '60'

config interface 'wan'
        option ifname 'eth0'
        option proto 'dhcp'

config interface 'wwan'
        option ifname 'apcli0'
        option proto 'dhcp'

    And here is /etc/config/wireless:

    
config wifi-device 'ra0'
	option type 'ralink'
	option mode '9'
	option channel 'auto'
	option txpower '100'
	option ht '20'
	option country 'US'
	option disabled '0'

config wifi-iface
	option device 'ra0'
	option network 'wlan'
	option mode 'ap'
	option encryption 'psk2'
	option key '12345678'
	option ApCliEnable '1'
	option ApCliAuthMode 'WPA2PSK'
	option ApCliEncrypType 'AES'
	option ssid 'Omega-616B'
	option ApCliSsid 'PUTYOUROWNSSIDHERE'
	option ApCliPassWord 'PUTYOURPASSWORDHERE'

config wifi-config
	option ssid 'PUTYOUROWNSSIDHERE'
	option encryption 'WPA2PSK'
	option key 'PUTYOURPASSWORDHERE'

    Modify your files similarly and hopefully you'll get WiFi working. If your WiFi-network is on a channel higher than 9, you may have to change the channel from auto to whatever channel you're using -- auto didn't work for me when I tested my WiFi on channel 13, even with correct countryregion-settings.

    @WereCatf Nope, that does nothing either. I'v tried all the suggestions in all the other threads. I can't even flash (manually) firmware on this Omega - the sysupgrade fails to do the job. 😞

    @Zogg-Baubas Why did you use --force? You made two mistakes with sysupgrade: 1) move the image to /tmp. It won't work from /, like you noticed. 2) use sysupgrade -n yourimagehere.bin to have it wipe all current settings while upgrading.

    If you do it correctly it'll work.

    @Zogg-Baubas I upgraded mine by using the serial console over USB. To do this, install the driver from and follow the directions on https://wiki.onion.io/Tutorials/Connecting-to-Omega-via-Serial-Terminal then do the steps below per http://community.onion.io/topic/1154/omega-2-usb-firmware-install-after-brick-resolved/2

    1. Download firmware file to USB flash drive
    2. Rename the file to Omega2.bin (this works for both Omega2 & Omega 2+)
    3. Connect PC to Omega 2 via device supporting USB to serial connectivity.
    4. Hold the reset button down and power on the omega.
    5. Select option #2, install firmware from USB.

    Thanks, will do once my USB-Serial cable arrives. 😉 For now it is bricked.

    I've done everything I have seen on this community and still have not gotten a single positive result. I'm also running 0.1.8 b145. Still shocked my ESP8266 and ESP32 are connecting to Wi-Fi but this somehow struggles with its superior specs...

    @mehmet-bozkurt Your config file seems to be OK 😔 .

    Have you check your subnet: no collision (see here)?

    Perhaps could you try to force option channel to '6'? Run nr command after and check if you get an IP with ia command...

    @Mikaël-PIRIO no collision. its on different subnet. how can i force channel to 6? on router side ?

    @mehmet-bozkurt No. In your /etc/config/wireless config file, in the "config wifi-device 'ra0'" section.

    @Mikaël-PIRIO same result. btw i found my "xiaomi mi router nano" and seems omega2 can connect this router too.
    seems something wrong on omega2 firmware side

    Call me crazy, but I had a wifi password of 63 characters, including special characters like space, ',' and even '<'. I changed it to a normal 12-character password and now my Omega2 can connect.
