v2 board SD boots but no WiFi access

fuzzynavel

I’m using supplied sd card.  Image used from //avnet.me/ultra96-v2-oob link.  ultra96v2_oob_2018_3_190530.img  Followed directions from quick start card.  Minutes after boot there is no WIFi access.  No D9 LED light. Card is otherwise behaving as expected in quick start card guidance.   Thanks for any suggestions

  • Sorry for the delay. I am working on that document. Also, at the time we released that May 30th image, the Access Point wasn't working yet. Therefore, you have to configure it manually to work. See the instructions below. I hope to have a new image by next week with the Access Point working.

     

    Before bringing up the WiFi interface you must first edit the /home/root/wpa_supplicant.conf file with the correct SSID and security password for your WiFi access point.  Once that is done you can run the supplied /home/root/wifi.sh script to copy the wpa_supplicant.conf file to /etc, load the kernel modules for the driver, and bring up the WiFi interface:

    #Copy the supplied wpa_supplicant.conf file to /etc

    #!!!NEED TO EDIT WITH SSID & PASSWORD FIRST!!!

    cp -f /home/root/wpa_supplicant.conf /etc

     

    # Load ATWILC3000 driver

    modprobe wilc-sdio

     

    # bring up interface

    ifconfig wlan0 up

     

    #Run wpa_supplicant for secure networking:

    wpa_supplicant -Dnl80211 -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -B

     

    #To add DHCP:

                udhcpc -i wlan0

    Were you successful with these instructions? I have also included these in the Getting Started Guide posted here:

    Ultra96-V2 Development Board | Zedboard

     

    The next version will have the Ultra96-V2 acting as an Access Point, so it will be a bit simpler.

    Hi Emillie,

     

    Did you enter your SSID and password into the wap_supplicant file?

    Hi Joshua,

    Thank you for you quick reply!

     

    Yes I did, at least, I entered the following:

     

    ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

    ctrl_interface_group=0

    update_config=1

    network={

          key_mgmt=WPA-PSK

         ssid="RCK_MY_WRLD"

         psk="AABBCCDDEEFF00112233445566"

    }

     

    Do I have to use my own password and SSID? If yes, where can I find it ?

     

    Regards,

    Emilie

    Hi Emile,


    That's your problem, you need to use your own internet SSID and Password for your local network.

    In case your not familiar with the terms.

     

    SSID is the name of your wifi network.

    psk is the password for that wifi network.

     

    Does that make sense?

    Ok I understand now.

     

    I thought it was like the Ultra 96 V1, I mean, the Ultra 96 v1 provides a wifi network. Is the Ultra 96 v2 able to do that?  or can we just connect the u96 v2 to a network ?

     

    Regards,

    Emilie

    Hi Emile,

     

    We are currently working on getting the wireless access point working with the Ultra96-V2. Please stay tune for the latest BSP!

    One last question !

    Does it mean that I cannot create my own Petalinux project ?  I mean, if I use settings like :

     

    DTG Settings → (zcu100-revc) MACHINE_NAME

    u-boot Configurations → (xilinx_zynqmp_zcu100_revC_defconfig) u-boot config target

    Yocto Settings → (ultra96-zynqmp) YOCTO_MACHINE_NAME

     

    Will it works ?

     

    Regards,

    Emilie
