Yay! With the LEDE image, my Omega2+ connects to my Mikrotik router. Finally I can start developing on this months after receiving it.
onion.io devs: Please fix your wireless drivers so I can come back to your images. I shouldn't have to use the LEDE images just to get wifi out of the box. You've got a great product here but it's hindered by this problem.
@zach-Van better way: ssh-keygen -R 192.168.3.1
@Jacob-Bendicksen Make sure you aren't using a cheap USB cable; the poorly made ones can have issues. Also make sure you power cycle the Omega2; I find that if I don't access the serial port soon after a cold boot, it 'goes away'.
ETA: I saw your other post; I'm on Sierra and I don't have any issues with it - try my suggestions above, also, you may find you need to be root in order to attach via screen.
@Martin-Wiedmeyer I tried both ways; one with wireshark itself and then one using the native wifi monitor and opening the resultant packet capture in wireshark to grab anything from the Omega. As far as I can tell it never tries to associate.
@WereCatf Tried this... no change.
@Martin-Wiedmeyer All I see when I do that are beacons from the Omega advertising the Omega-76EB network.
0_1487542455135_omega.pcapng
Either I am doing something wrong (possible, I don't use wireshark much) or the Omega isn't even trying.
(EDIT: references to 'jkl-omega' is the default network it brings up; I renamed the Omega-76EB network so my roomate wouldn't freak out about something new :D)
@Martin-Wiedmeyer As far as I am able to tell, it doesn't even try associating. I am going to investigate further when everyone else goes to sleep 
@Martin-Wiedmeyer Further up the thread has the info; Microtik CRS109-8G-1S-2HnD - it's running the latest firmware. I hadn't thought of the packet capture because I'm not sure anything is actually negotiating, but let me try it and see.
@Martin-Wiedmeyer I'm glad yours works. Mine doesn't. It's hard not to be a little irritated with the fact that I kickstarted a fancy paperweight. That said, I want to help diagnose whatever has gone wrong so that it can be fixed and can be used.
I've done some testing with the only other wifi device I have: a wifi hotspot on a Samsung Galaxy J7. The results are distressing. I am connected via my mac to the serial console to do this test.
Test 0: a working example using no encryption, which is literally the only way I can make it work:

Hey, I have internet. Let's test:

> Checking latest version online...
> Repo Firmware Version: 0.1.9 b149

It works! So I clear out the stuff in the /etc/config/network related to my AP and start from this:
root@Omega-76EB:/# cat /etc/config/wireless
config wifi-device 'ra0'
option type 'ralink'
option mode '9'

option mode 'ap'
option encryption 'psk2'

Now I use 'wifi-setup' to configure:

Here's what wifisetup did:
root@Omega-76EB:/# cat /etc/config/wireless
config wifi-device 'ra0'
option type 'ralink'
option mode '9'
option channel 'auto'
option txpower '100'

option ssid 'Omega-76EB'
option ApCliEnable '1'
config wifi-config
option ssid 'ma3a'
option encryption 'NONE'
Wifi doesn't work. What is the purpose of the wifi-config section if it doesn't actually make it work?
If I add back ApCliSsid 'ma3a', I can connect to my open hotspot.

Gutter ball!
Is anyone from Onion watching this thread? I want to help diagnose this problem but all we have so far in this thread is conjecture.
@Moritz-Stueckler 15 characters, [a-z] only.
@Luciano-S. I'm not sure this is a problem limited to Mikrotik users because I can't even get the Omega2 to join to my cellphone's wifi hotspot unless I run it as an open wifi hotspot, which is only really acceptable for testing purposes.
Ah yes thank you. I am now running 0.1.9 b149 with the same issue.
Hi,
I've posted before about issues connecting to wifi, but in the interest of my sanity I feel I need to start my own thread on this. There's a lot of noise and similar issues and various fixes and so far nothing I have tried has helped.
I am running the latest firmware, 0.1.9 b149, and all I want to do is to be able to connect my Omega2+ to my network via wifi. Currently this is only possible via the ethernet expansion, since the only thing I can get the Omega2+ to connect to is an unencrypted cellular hotspot; anything encrypted (even WPA2 with AES) and it just refuses to join.
APs available are...

option ApCliSsid 'myssid'
option ApCliPassWord 'alphabeticpassword'
option ApCliEnable '1'
config wifi-config
option ssid 'myssid'
option encryption 'WPA2PSK'
option key 'alphabeticpassword'
I have tried various 'fixes' listed throughout the forums and gotten nowhere... so I'm starting over. Maybe I'm missing something.
If I have the expansion dock for the Omega2 is it possible to run a 3.3v 0.2A fan using the 3.3v header on the dock? I might be a little shy because I don't want anything to go bang.
