@netblues ok i do as you say thanks :-)

Infrastructure means client mode. It can connect as a client to some existing access point. That's the only mode the iwm driver supports in pfSense.

Steve

@stephenw10, I tried your suggestion when I encounter that issue again.

@x-falko said in Ralink RT3070 refuse to works in my hardware:

FADT

Mmm, that error does look like a BIOS issue.

Might be worth trying a different USB port if you can. One that's on a different bus if possible.

Steve

Sounds like you have this all under control :) Let us know how it turns out. Be well!

Not sure what you believe is going to change with how freerad works with 2.5?

Simple way to validate - is look at your log, and just sniff. Do you see traffic hitting pfsense from your AP?

I'm in London so signal strength is usually good. I've made no real effort to position it for better signal and it's surrounded by other firewalls etc. I see (last week):

!GSTATUS: Current Time: 1550848 Temperature: 44 Bootup Time: 0 Mode: ONLINE System mode: LTE PS state: Attached LTE band: B3 LTE bw: 15 MHz LTE Rx chan: 1392 LTE Tx chan: 19392 EMM state: Registered Normal Service RRC state: RRC Connected IMS reg state: No Srv RSSI (dBm): -71 Tx Power: 0 RSRP (dBm): -95 TAC: 048C (1164) RSRQ (dB): -7 Cell ID: 000E1F02 (925442) SINR (dB): 14.2

That's the EM7305 in an SG-2100 with random antennas!

I don't see anything listing CA state.

Steve

If you've added the interface and clients can connect to it then check they are getting an IP address from dhcp correctly. If they are then you are probably missing a firewall rule or possibly an outbound NAT rule if it not in automatic mode.

Steve

Hi @nblind
Thank you for your support.
I have already implemented the delay, that is correct. Unfortunately, my problem still exists. Currently I use a workaround. I reboot the device once a night and start a reset of the modem via cron 10 minutes later. So it works - for whatever reason.....
Best Regards

@cburbs

Wow way too much time spent on this lately but finally getting it to where I want it to be.

Things still testing:
Iphone control while on Vlan8 to items in Vlan3(plex), Vlan4(Receiver, PiCorePlayers, Shields, Roku).

Verify anything in Vlans 3+ can't get to pfsense box, switches, APs, Server.

I am sure I am forgetting something.

What does the crash report show?

Before you enable the interface does the module appear to load correctly?

And the driver recognises the hardware?

Steve

That Ethernet card will probably work fine.

The wifi card will not work at all. There isn't any 802.11AC support in FreeBSD/pfSense, yet, let alone .AX.

Steve

Thanks both!

I've set an ASUS Router I had to AP mode and put it behind pfSense. My exact setup looks like this:
Provider Router - pfSense - Switch - AP. QNAP is connected to the switch and I can access it with my mobile phone.

Yeah, same here: https://forum.netgate.com/topic/158771/netgate-3100-and-crypto-accelerator-in-openvpn

-Rico

Yeah most likely... Lets see if he still tries it after we have called him out..

Yeah actually it is all on the same subnet, per I think the easiest way is to disable the wireless traffic on the Unifi's scheduler, thanks for your input.

Generally you do not need to install drivers. Hardware is either already supported or it isn't.

What device do you have?

What do you see in the system logs when you connect it?

What does usbconfig dump_all_desc show?

Steve

Yeah there are probably better supported wifi modules out there, also for the cabled ethernet. But for $35 i cant complain. Linux is probably a good option too as it has a bit better hardware support.
