Hi. This is not strictly a gentoo problem, but I would like advise from people on how to get my wifi card to see the internet.
On my new box I have the following card: 00:14.3 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless-AC 9560 [Jefferson Peak] (rev 10) Subsystem: Intel Corporation Wireless-AC 9560 [Jefferson Peak] Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi Now, I wanted to serve other computers with this device and so emerged hostapd. Then after some configuration fooling around with /etc/hostap/hostapd.conf, I got things to the point where the card comes up and is seen by other devices. I set the device up on its own network at 192.168.3.1 by using the following unit file: [Unit] Description=Network Connectivity for %i Documentation=man:ip Before=network.target Wants=network.target BindsTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-%i.device After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-%i.device [Service] Type=oneshot RemainAfterExit=yes EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/network@%i ExecStart=/bin/ip link set dev %i up ExecStart=/bin/ip addr add ${address}/${netmask} broadcast ${broadcast} dev %i ExecStart=-/bin/bash -c "test -n ${gateway} && /bin/ip route add default via ${gateway}" ExecStart=-/bin/bash -c "test -f /etc/conf.d/postup@%i.sh&&/bin/bash -c /etc/conf.d/postup@%i.sh" ExecStop=/bin/ip addr flush dev %i ExecStop=/bin/ip link set dev %i down ExecStop=-/bin/bash -c "test -f /etc/conf.d/postdown@%i.sh&&/bin/bash -c /etc/conf.d/postdown@%i.sh" [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target and the following in /etc/conf.d/network@wlan0 address=192.168.3.1 netmask=24 broadcast=192.168.3.255 and also added the following route route add -net 192.168.3.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eno1 but still I cannot get packets out to the internet. I can ping the device from my console, but that is it. I am not sure whether I am missing something in my hostapd.conf or somewhere else. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it? John Covici wb2una cov...@ccs.covici.com
