[WANDBOARD QUAD] no network

[Geoff]

On my Cubox-i4Pro (same broadcom wifi?), I found more consistency with leases when I changed /etc/dhcpcd.conf as follows:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
# Use the hardware address of the interface for the Client ID.
clientid
# or
# Use the same DUID + IAID as set in DHCPv6 for DHCPv4 ClientID as per RFC4361.
#duid
')

changed no dhcpcd.conf, but no changes in results.

I happened to be right, you need to change the device tree in order to make WiFi work.
these are the changes I made:

the first section is gpio@020b0000 (GPIO block 6), the second section is rfkill
Wifi now works, Bluetooth not yet.
There is no simple on- to-one pin change, so some more research is in order.

even in Rev. B1?

[PLyttle]

No, sorry, this is strictly rev C1

It's worth noting the wireless will never work with chans 12 and above, the firmware has a global country set

also having brcmfmac-error & ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]-erros..but wlan works without problems using netctl even when started at boot/not manually

my netctl file looks like this:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'Description='A wireless connection using a custom network block configuration'
Interface=wlan0
Connection=wireless
Security=wpa-configsection
IP=dhcp
WPAConfigSection=(
'ssid="wlan name"'
'psk=xxxx (key from wpa_passphrase)'
)
DHCPClient='dhclient' #if dhcpcd fails
')
