Wetdog Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 I have been playing around with my pineapple and after my last restore I can no longer find my wlan1. I was using a 4 port usb. On the usb hub I have my usb drive and the second usb wifi. The usb drive is detected fine. I checked my /etc/config/wireless and I remember that had a second entry for radio1, but is no longer in there. I connected my usb wifi directly into my pineapple but I still have no luck. My only thought is to roll back to 2.8.0. I am not sure if the issue started when I upgraded to 2.8.1 I guess I will try a rollback but I wanted to see if anyone had any other thoughts or commands I can try.

Wetdog Posted May 18, 2013 Author Share Posted May 18, 2013 I rolled back to 2.8.0 but I have the same issue. When I do a lsusb I only see the usb generic usb port When I plug in my usb hub I see the hub and my 4 gig usb drive. Could my usb wifi dongle just go bad? I purchased the pineapple elite pack so I am using the second usb wifi that was provided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Unplugg all USB devices from the pineapple. Power on the pineapple and let it boot. Once fully booted, plug in the wifi adapter. Does it show up with ifconfig? Read the bottom label, what is the adapter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wetdog Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share Posted May 19, 2013 I did a boot with nothing plug into the usb port. Once the pineapple was up I ran ifconfig and iwconig, I did not see a 2nd wifi port.

Mr-Protocol Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 After it was fully booted, did you plug in your WiFi adapter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wetdog Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share Posted May 19, 2013 Yes I did. Just the usb wifi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telot Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 You mention a 4 port hub, but not that its powered. Please confirm the hub is a POWERED one. telot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
