However, I don't see any access point named beaglebone available from my phone. This makes sense since the mode on wlan0 is wrong under iwconfig. So, I figure I'm not doing something correctly. But don't know where to look for the documentation I need to figure this out. I still have the connman configuration set to the following: root@beaglebone:/var/lib/connman# cat wifi.config [service_home] Type = wifi Name = *******my home AP*********** Security = wpa2 Passphrase = ***********my home AP password********* FYI, I executed the above statement while I was connected to my home WPA2 access point if that makes a difference.
