slimjim2234 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Long story short, I messed up the /etc/config/wireless file and now the USB light on the router blinks very rapidly and the iwconfig command spits out: lo no wireless extensions.eth1 no wireless extensions. wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn Mode:Master Frequency:2.462 GHz Tx-Power=18 dBm RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:on eth0 no wireless extensions. wlan4 IEEE 802.11bgn Mode:Master Frequency:2.462 GHz Tx-Power=20 dBm RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:off mon.wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn Mode:Monitor Frequency:2.462 GHz Tx-Power=18 dBm RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:on br-lan no wireless extensions. mon.wlan4 IEEE 802.11bgn Mode:Monitor Frequency:2.462 GHz Tx-Power=20 dBm RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:off I definitely screwed something up, help would be greatly appreciated and possibly an output of someone's working /etc/config/wireless file?

PineDominator Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Everyone's wireless file Is different "Mac address" I would re-flash, I believe there is a command u can run like WiFi > /etc/config/wireless. Search for the correct command before trying that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infiltrator Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) Does your WLAN0 interface show up, when doing an ifconfig? Edited October 1, 2012 by Infiltrator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebkinne Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Why re-flash when you can hit the reset button. Button is on the bottom of the pineapple. Hold for around 8s (5-10). That should fix you back up. Best Regards, Sebkinne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimjim2234 Posted October 6, 2012 Author Share Posted October 6, 2012 well i fixed my issue once again, just restored the wifi config file but running "wifi down" "wifi detect > /etc/config/wireless" "wifi up" about 3-4 times and removed the networkmanager module. I have no idea why my problems started from messing networkmanager, I tried to revert the changes done but that didn't work until i manually fixed it through ssh with the command above. Thanks for your help tho guys, i greatly appreciate it. I'll definitely try the reset button next button, it'll probably save me another hour of chasing my tail.
