Reflash, the factory image on the bbgw had wlan0 problems that we didn't figure out till way later.. https://rcn-ee.net/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2017-01-15/iot/ Either blank's will reflash the eMMC, the bone-* will just run from the microSD. By default it's in hostapd mode, open /etc/default/bb-wl18xx TETHER_ENABLED=yes -> TETHER_ENABLED=no (or anything other then yes) and you'll have full control over wlan0: Here's all the default options: https://github.com/rcn-ee/repos/blob/master/bb-wl18xx-firmware/suite/jessie/debian/postinst#L20 Regards, -- Robert Nelson https://rcn-ee.com/ -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
