Client Mode Connect to WPA2-Personal Access Point Fails

I was unable to connect my MKV to a WPA2-Personal access point using the 'Client Mode' page. I could connect to access points with open authentication just fine though...

Are there any known bugs/issues here? The settings in /etc/config/wireless seem fine.

Any ideas / good places to look for clues as to what is causing the problem?

OK, so now I can't even client mode connect to open networks - even after a 'factory reset'.

Addtionally, even attempting to client mode connect to any network kills the Pineapple5_xxxx access point and it doesn't work again until I do another factory rest.

Something doesn't seem right to me...

Are there any diagnostics I can run to make sure both radios are working properly and/or make sure that a factory reset is working properly?

I tried the WiFi Manager infusion and couldn't get things working either! Is anybody else having issues or is it just me?

Same here.

MK5 Failed to connect to two different access points / WPA2-PSK

The first access point I tried to connect to was a picostation

The second AP was a mikrotik.

I changed the security on the mikrotik to open, and I was able to connect... ??

I'm not sure what's going on yet, but both my laptop and my cell can connect to these APs, but the RTL8187 failes every single time.

If you have a micro SD card inserted, try removing it.

I was having a similar problem with client mode. If I insert the micro SD card, wlan1 will not scan for available access points. If I remove the micro SD card, wlan1 will scan and connect fine.

I don't have my pineapple with me at the moment, but here is the content of the relevant files from a backup I made the other day (with sensitive information changed):

Command "wifi" via SSH output:

Failed to start hostapd for phy1
command failed: Device or resource busy (-16)
Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant

I did all this after a factory reset.

I also tried booting it up afterwards without the MicroSD card inserted.

Nothing seems to work.

This is a 2.4GHz WiFi - CISCO Router.

I can connect to my home network (Airport Extreme N router) with WPA2 password but cannot connect to my iPhone 5. Just won't connect.. Oddly always connects to my Airport Extreme though.

I'll write up a more detailed response soon, we are traveling to toorcon right now.

Client mode works, but it seems there is a bug somewhere with certain access points.

The red LED only turns on when connected to another network.

Bootloops after reset: check your dip switches.

It's to do with how encryption is reported.

I am going to write up a small script or command that'll collect the information we need to debug this. Sit tight.

That's what I was thinking. Thanks Seb!

So I got my MK5 today and had to poke around at this issue... Seb is spot on, of course, in that using the Network tile and Client Mode Tab to try to connect to an access point will in some cases result in the encryption option being set to an invalid configuration. But there is a way to fix it....

First off I was able to get the MK5 some internet via an AP that worked. You could try direct connect with the eth0 port or try an AP without encryption enabled. Either way you'll want to install Whistle Master's WiFi Manager infusion from the pineapple bar. Once you've done that you'll see a couple of new features that really helped me fix the problem... Check out the new Backup Tab. Create one and view it... Scroll down to the bottom and look what it says for 'option encryption'...

Below is what the Client Mode tab wrote to the etc/config/wireless file.

config wifi-device 'radio0'
option type 'mac80211'
option channel '11'
option hwmode '11ng'
option macaddr '00:13:37:a5:08:db'
option htmode 'HT20'
list ht_capab 'SHORT-GI-20'
list ht_capab 'SHORT-GI-40'
list ht_capab 'RX-STBC1'
list ht_capab 'DSSS_CCK-40'
option disabled '0'

config wifi-iface
option device 'radio0'
option network 'lan'
option mode 'ap'
option ssid 'Pineapple5_08DB'
option hidden '0'

config wifi-device 'radio1'
option type 'mac80211'
option hwmode '11g'
option macaddr '00:13:37:81:42:cb'
option disabled '0'
option channel 'auto'

config wifi-iface
option device 'radio1'
option network 'wan'
option hidden '0'
option mode 'sta'
option ssid 'Allen'\''s Network'
option key 'MyPassword'
option encryption 'mixed-psk+ccmp'

But by using the WiFi Manager infusion and changing the settings via the drop down to WPA2 Personal and TKIP and then saving and committing... I got the following written to the new etc/config/wireless file in the Backup Tab.

Backup [2013-10-18 07-27-32]

config wifi-device 'radio0'
option type 'mac80211'
option channel '11'
option hwmode '11ng'
option macaddr '00:13:37:a5:08:db'
option htmode 'HT20'
list ht_capab 'SHORT-GI-20'
list ht_capab 'SHORT-GI-40'
list ht_capab 'RX-STBC1'
list ht_capab 'DSSS_CCK-40'
option disabled '0'

config wifi-iface
option device 'radio0'
option network 'lan'
option mode 'ap'
option ssid 'Pineapple5_08DB'
option hidden '0'

config wifi-device 'radio1'
option type 'mac80211'
option hwmode '11g'
option macaddr '00:13:37:81:42:cb'
option disabled '0'
option channel 'auto'

config wifi-iface
option device 'radio1'
option network 'wan'
option hidden '0'
option mode 'sta'
option ssid 'Allen'\''s Network'
option key 'MyPassword'
option encryption 'psk2+tkip'

A subtle but important difference in that last line. Once I made the change it works great except that you can't disconnect! The DHCP Release doesn't work because the Network tile Client Mode tab is now in charge. I like the stock Client Mode tab idea but it would sure be nice to be able to disable it...

So hopefully this will help others get up and running until some fixes are worked.

And on a separate but related topic... I can't seem to get wlan1 to do anything else but the above. I tried to set it up as another AP instead of a Client but that's not working.

Woohoo!! You are my hero!! Thanks!

This works perfectly!

Hope that there will be an official update soon that will fix this bug for good! ;)

I will give it a try later today. Thanks for the findings

Jmanuel,

It's true it won't release, I mentioned that above. What you can do is go back and erase the pass key or change the encryption back to the bad one, then hit save and commit. That should prevent you from attaching automatically after booting up. Not elegant but it will work. Just make sure to use that new Backup feature. Save a good version and a bad one and you can hit restore between them as needed.

So here's an update...

First if you're on a Mac use Chrome... Safari gave me quite a few issues.

More importantly I may have found the fix for the Network Tile: Client Mode connection problem. You delete one character from one section in the functions.php file located at root@Pineapple:/pineapple/components/system/network/functions.php

What it is:

}elseif($ap->security->WPA2 != null && $ap->security->WPA2 != null){
$mode = "mixed-psk";
$cipher = "";
if($ap->security->WPA2->ccmp != null){
$cipher .= "+ccmp";
}
if($ap->security->WPA2->tkip != null){
$cipher .= "+tkip";
}
exec("uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[1].key=".$ap->key);
exec("uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[1].encryption=".$mode.$cipher);

What it probably should be for Mixed Mode:

}elseif($ap->security->WPA != null && $ap->security->WPA2 != null){
$mode = "mixed-psk";
$cipher = "";
if($ap->security->WPA2->ccmp != null){
$cipher .= "+ccmp";
}
if($ap->security->WPA2->tkip != null){
$cipher .= "+tkip";
}
exec("uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[1].key=".$ap->key);
exec("uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[1].encryption=".$mode.$cipher);

You guys let me know if I'm correct, but I tested it on my network and the etc/config/wireless file was edited correctly and it connected right up.
