skuenstler 0 Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) Hi,  I tried to get WiFi running using BalenaOS (image balenaOS 2.38.3+rev1) following the Balena setup manual But WiFi is not working. Any help on this ? What I tried A), B) or C) see as follows... But unfortunately, none of the trials A, B or C helped 😞 Do you have any idea on how to get the WiFi running using the balenaOS.2.38+rev1 image ????  Trial A) using the file system-connections/balena-wifi-01 in the flash-boot of the BalenaOS image [connection] id=balena-wifi-01 type=wifi [wifi] hidden=false mode=infrastructure ssid=MY_SSID [ipv4] method=auto [ipv6] addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy method=auto [wifi-security] auth-alg=open key-mgmt=wpa-psk psk=MY_PW  Trial B) As described in flash-boot's system-connections/README.ignores file, I took away the .ignores of the resin-sample File. But this seems an old way of doing things. Not sure about this. [connection] id=resin-sample type=wifi [wifi] hidden=true mode=infrastructure ssid=MY_SSID [wifi-security] auth-alg=open key-mgmt=wpa-psk psk=MY_PW [ipv4] method=auto [ipv6] addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy method=auto Trial C) entering WiFi/PW credentials in flash-boot's device-type.json {    "slug": "asus-tinker-board-s",    "version": 1,    "aliases": [       "asus-tinker-board-s"    ],    "name": "Asus Tinker Board S (EXPERIMENTAL)",    "arch": "armv7hf",    "state": "EXPERIMENTAL",    "stateInstructions": {       "postProvisioning": [          "The device is performing a shutdown.

Ming-Ta Yu 0 Posted July 18, 2022 Which board do you use? Tinker Board (S) or Tinker Board (S) R2.0? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay 0 Posted July 23, 2022 I snapped the two antenna wires to the board and my wifi worked. Without those connected it would not see anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cmoreno 0 Posted September 21, 2022 I cannot make the wifi to work as a hotspot. This is using the standard Linux image setup, nothing fancy. I cannot make it work for S R2.0 and for the 2S. Antennas or not antennas. Frustrating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jay 0 Posted September 23, 2022 have you login as root and see if it will work? Log off and then as root. I never used tinkerboard as a hot spot. I use my cellphone and tethering in the setting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
