28th jan snap wifi shows insecure where as in settings its wpa enabled
-
Those are setup by pfSense automagically xbipin
Do not worry no issues arise from that.
The backend will make sure and synchronize all your instances of wireless on the same device to your configured setting.s -
ok fine, one more thing, is the below an error
php: : The command '/usr/bin/killall dhcpd' returned exit code '1', the output was 'No matching processes were found'
-
Nah but fixed to not get the warning anymore.

Now on 2.1-BETA1 (i386) built on Wed Jan 30 04:20:39 EST 2013 - which has the fixed up code to start hostapd with a PID file. WiFi and all is working fine and secured. But I still have this in syslog amongst the startup:
Jan 30 16:10:08 php: : The command '/sbin/ifconfig 'ath0_wlan0' country 'NP' 'indoor'' returned exit code '1', the output was 'ifconfig: SIOCS80211: Invalid argument'
I have no idea if this is a "normal" message that has been there for months, or something recent - I guess it pays to look through boot logs when eberything is working, as well as when there are evident problems :) When I have a little more time I will track down how/why it is generated.
Can anyone say if this is a "normal" feature of the boot process or something special to my Alix2D13 with ath0 WiFi card? -
My interface does not come up still do to the fact the pid file is missing from /var/run/. It is generating the /tmp/run0_wlan0_setup.sh file just fine.
Even with the code fix of it still does not allow interface to come up with missing pid:
fwrite($fd_set, "{$hostapd} -B -P {$g['varrun_path']}/hostapd_{$if}.pid {$g['varetc_path']}/hostapd_{$if}.conf\n");Where in hostapd functions is it generating the pid file to go in /var/run/ because it is still not generating that file for me.
I was looking through the interfaces.inc file and I don't see where it's creating that file or does the function check isvalidpid check and create the pid file passed to it if it does not exist?
-
The PID file does not have to be generated manually, it is created by the hostapd process where the location of the file is specified using the -P parameter.

Thanks you are correct and thanks… I manually ran the lines in the setup file and it generated the pid file. Now when I disable and enable the Wireless interface it comes right back up. It should have done this without me having to run it manually but at least it's working agian. Should have tried that first. Many Thanks for all the good work.

with the latest snap, wifi works fine but suppose u go to interfaces and wifi and hit save and apply then wifi comes back up and wifi to lan works fine but wifi devices loose internet access
-
You are bridging Wifi-LAN and not routing Wifi-LAN correct? I'm wondering if I should skip updating from an older snap until this is sorted…
-
My wifi seems to work fine now. But I did have an issue similar about bridge only working with internet on Mulit-Wan Group but the bridge of LAN1, LAN2 LAN3, LAN4, WLAN1 not seeing the each other on the bridge. I finially figured out and changed under System -> Advanced -> System Tunables -> Tunable Name -> net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge back to 0 and all went to working correctly again. I also checked the box of System -> Advanced -> Firewall and NAT -> Disable reply-to but not real sure if this had any effect on things.

i tried the newest snap just today again and it seems to work fine now, saving under wifi brings back wifi back to normal without issues
