also, I've tried the sequence where first I type wifi then wifisetup

@Luciano-S. Yes, correct. When connected over serial, I have done the following with the respective results:

1. action: wifisetup > selection 1 (scan for wifi networks)
   result: ERROR: no networks detected... try again in a little while

2. action: wifisetup > selection 2 (type network info)
   result:

[ 325.520000] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0-1: link is not ready
[ 325.790000] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready

Done!

[ 364.750000] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready

1. action: edited wireless config file (located at /etc/config/wireless) to try and broadcast AP
   result: no AP broadcast

Maybe I have defective hardware?

@Luciano-S. yes, the problem is there are 20+ wireless networks in range of the omega. If the omega can't find a single SSID, there has got to be a different problem.

@Luciano-S. thanks for the reply! I can't even scan for wireless networks. Each time I do, it returns "no wireless networks found, try again later..." Any thoughts?

Even right after a factory reset though, the ap is not broadcasting. Here is the ifconfig output:

Also, trying to connect to a network produces the following:

[ 554.310000] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready

still not seeing the ap broadcast

@Lazar-Demin ahh.

@Lazar-Demin just did the factory restart. It is currently hung at the following during boot:

[ 31.220000] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
[ 31.320000] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready
[ 59.070000] random: nonblocking pool is initialized

Also, if I run wifi in terminal, I get the following:

[ 132.770000] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0-1: link is not ready
[ 133.590000] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready

and it hangs, I have to ctl+c to exit

@Lazar-Demin Thanks for the reply! Yes, I' connected via serial and I've looked at the wireless config file. Everything seems to be in order:

config wifi-device 'radio0'
option type 'mac80211'
option hwmode '11g'
option path 'platform/ar933x_wmac'
option htmode 'HT20'
option disabled '0'
option channel '11'
option txpower '30'
option country 'US'

config wifi-iface
option device 'radio0'
option network 'wlan'
option mode 'ap'
option encryption 'psk2'
option ssid 'omega-test-server'
option key 'onioneer'

Doesn't broadcast the ap. Also, when I scan for SSIDs via the wifisetup tool, it says no networks detected and if I try and connect to my router, the omega crashes and reboots. I'm on firmware 0.0.1 but can't get an internet connection to update.

Just got the omega, slapped it on the expansion dock, waited for the omega led to stop blinking.... and can't find the access point with any of my machines. Did a full SSID scan, can't find it. Anyone have this issue when they first got theirs?
