b0N3z Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I set the Open AP channel to 100 (5ghz) and after I updated the AP wlan0 and wlan0-1 have gone missing also. Under networking tab and running ifconfig. I also did a reboot and the same thing. I made a bug report on wifipineapple.com. Has anybody else run into this?

b0N3z Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 wlan0 shows up after ifconfig -a but now wlan0-1 and it is enabled. Also blue light still won't light for wlan0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0N3z Posted February 22, 2017 Author Share Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) $ ifconfig wlan0 up $ifconfig wlan0-1 up this brought up wlan0 but still no wlan0-1 and it is enabled in the webui. Im using channel 100. PineAP enables wlan1mon which shows up with "ifconfig" and the LED starts going, but the webui will not switch to Enabled and I can only log and allow associations. Recon works and returns results. After reboot wlan0 is down. Also yes that is correct about wlan0-1. I think im getting this right, but radio0 broadcast 2 different AP's (wlan0 and wlan0-1). wlan0 is the openAP and wlan0-1 is the ManagementAP Edited February 22, 2017 by b0N3z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just_a_User Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 just a thought - did you try the reset wifi config to defaults option? found on Networking page - advanced dropdown just above hostname. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b0N3z Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) I don't know why but I changed it to channel 44 and no problem. So interesting though, my home wifi router for 5ghz is missing 100-124 which the pineapple allows to switch to. I downloaded an app on my phone and nobody in my area is using those channels. So after doing some reading the channels I was trying to use are used for DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection). Which I somewhat understand enough to know that its not going to work. Edit: Even though changing the channel fixed my wlan0 and wlan0-1 problem of not showing up... Now it shows both interfaces up but Its not broadcasting wlan0-1 (managementAP). The Open AP is broadcasting (wlan0) Edited February 27, 2017 by b0N3z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
