[SOLVED] Wifi on HP Chromebook 11?

[dacto]

Hi All, I'm having quite a hard time getting wifi to work with WPA2 network on the HP Chromebook 11 running the latest chromebook arch arm.

I've made sure wpa_supplicant is installed.
I've install iw and wireless_tools.
mwifiex was complaining about being unable to set the region so I installed crda and wireless-reg tool. Set the region to US.

Going through wifi-menu always fails even though the network password is correct.

I've tried manually bring up the device with `ip link set mlan0 up` which does indeed bring it up with mode of DEFAULT. Still cannot connect.


Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Edit: I should mention that the latest ChromeOS from the stable channel is able to connect to the network decently.

Solution:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('dacto', 'T')his is fixed by:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '# To stop the dis/reconnecting due to crda world regulatory domain updates.
> echo "options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=US" > /etc/modprobe.d/options

# To actually use wifi with speeds greater than a few bytes/s need to turn off wifi power management.
> iwconfig mlan0 power off')

Bump - Anyone have some tips?

I even have WPA2-PEAP working @ my office, so I am not sure what part of the configuration you've got wrong, but it does work.

Have a look at this, for assisting with the power management:
