Re: WiFi borked after update

2008-10-02 Thread Patrik Flykt

Hi,

Re-reading the original post seems to indicate that I encountered a
totally different issue than what was described. For me the all the
required packages were downloaded nicely, but the installation failed.
No idea why it failed, but the good thing is that nobody else has been
able to reproduce it.

Marius and I suspect that if I had tried with 'apt-get -f install' or
'apt-get upgrade' immediately after or instead of the above command, I
would have been able to succeed in the installation. That can't of
course be verified anymore, as my device is working again.

The repository also got a minor changed in form of a symlink to guard
against potential installation failures like this one. If I hadn't had
my device configured with root login enabled, I would have been
reflashing the release instead. That's why there is a note recommending
backing up your stuff before upgrading :-).

I wouldn't reboot until running dpkg --configure -a, but maybe that's

Starting with Diablo, ICd2 now sets the DHCP hostname option if the
device has a non-NULL hostname. If the above file is changed, the
hostname is picked up in the next reboot. Or as root set it from the
command line (as in 'hostname foobar').

And yes, major overhaul is a mild understatement :-).

Oh, that setup most likely will still work, I hope.

The idea is to enable the dummy network feature for icd2 and have it
working as before, but unfortunately we discovered a minor bug in the
process. Once that gets resolved, I hope we'll have the same dummy

Is maemo-pan using the dummy network type in order to do its networking
stuff? I'm asking because the good old internet connectivity daemon has
been replaced with a new package, icd2, and that one does not contain
dummy network support by default.

The dot above the normal symbol mean a WLAN ad-hoc network. If the
device can't get a IP address with DHCP, it will fall back to
autoconfigured link-local IPv4 addresses. When a link-local address is
assigned, there won't be any default route set up, meaning no
connectivity anywhere except that link-local network.

No, that's not related except that WLAN ad-hoc mode consumes more power
and thus drains battery faster.

At the moment there will not be support for wpasupplicant in the
built-in Internet Connection daemon, sorry for that. In the longer run
this could be made possible, as I shall add that to our wish list.

Unfortunately we're not able to support a wpasupplicant hacking effort
at the moment, but you could start by tracking down what D-Bus messaging
there is between ICd and EAP software. EAP is pretty independent of ICd,
so there should be only very messages exchanged. It should not be too
hard to implement/emulate those and start wpasupplicant in response.
Settings are stored in gconf, and by logging debug syslog messages from
icd might give some more details (IIRC).

Actually, the wireless extensions might turn up difficult to do, and I'm
not at all sure what - or how complicated - messages there might be
between wlancond and EAP. The UI interaction messages are "easy" as they
are specified in osso-ic-ui-dbus.h from the osso-ic-oss package. They
can also be validated manually from the command line using dbus-send.

Hope this helps,

If you end up with link local IP(v4) adresses in the range 169.x.x.x,
then your device fails to contact the DHCP server. A common cause is to
mistype ones WEP key. Unfortunately I'm not at all sure this is the
cause of your problem. What kind of WLAN networks are you connecting to?
Open/WEP/WPA encrypted? How is the "logging in" supposed to be done in
the hotspot?

The entry does not accept chars with values greater than 127, even
though the virtual keyboard does not dim those keys. This can easily be
verified by trying to type e.g. 'ÅÄŒÖØ' in the WPA pre-shared key entry.

It seems that your 770 did not succeed in contacting your DHCP server,
therefore it auto-assigns a link-local IPv4 address for you. The 770
will try to reconnect within a minute to the DHCP server. If it fails
again to get an address, please check that DHCP is enabled in the WLAN
or configure the IP address manually.

Interesting if this occurs in b/g or g only, though...

Hope this helps,

If you enable the serial console from flasher the device will never go

Replying to myself: this feature should now be fixed in the latest 770
software release. When given a GPRS dialup number like *99***x#, 770 now
issues the proper AT+CGDCONT=x,... command.

EAP TTLS is different from EAP TLS. EAP TTLS is similar to EAP PEAP, as
both provide an encrypted wrapper between the endpoints. TTLS requires
certificates only in the server and the client is authenticated by a
password. EAP TLS uses certs in both ends.

770 does not support TTLS.

Yes, you can install a cert on 770. Go to Control panel -> Certificate
manager -> Import and select the file containing your certificate.

RADIUS is the back-end authentication protocol spoken between your WLAN
access point and the RADIUS authentication server. The 770 can
authenticate to the access point using EAP messages that are then sent
from the access point to the RADIUS server encapsulated in RADIUS
messages. Essentially 770 then talks EAP messages between itself and the
RADIUS authentication server. If I remember correctly, that is.

770 supports the following EAP authentication methods:
- EAP SIM
- EAP TLS using certificates
- EAP PEAP using GTC and optional PEAP certificate
- EAP PEAP using MSCHAPv2 and optional PEAP certificate

If any of these are supported by your RADIUS authentication server, all
is fine.

You can set 770 to remember your password (GTC and MSCHAPv2) or to ask
it every time.

Ouch. It should then issue an AT+CGDCONT=9,... if the number is set to
*99***9#. Unfortunately if the AT+CGDCONT=1,... fails, the whole
connection fails. And that's what 770 sends at startup. I think I'll go
and file a bug.

There is a mad hack for this, though:
- Create a new data call connection
- set its dial-up number to *99***9#
- go to advanced options, other tab
- set the AT+CGDCONT=9,... at command to supplementary at commands
- save & use but with the data call icon activated
- naturally the connection timeout settings etc. for this hack now
  follows 'data call' settings

Currently this should work because AT commands are used for establishing
both CD and GPRS connections. Thanx to Timo T. across the room for
advice :-).

According to the above, Bluetooth is paired and working fine.

You can either try creating a new GPRS internet connection from Control
Panel menu -> Tools -> Mobile oprator setup wizard or by adding them
manually.

Please check that the GPRS access point name is correct (default is
"internet") and that the username/password are correct if used. The
problem might also be in the dial-up number, try with either *99# or
*99***1#. Some phones/operators seem to like only one of those even
though the spec says both of them should work just fine...

If you have the phone working with your PDA or laptop you could copy the
same GPRS settings values over to your 770.

Hope this helps,
