No, we do our own kernel compilation, based on the LTS sources released by kernel.org.
We try to keep as close as possible to Ubuntu and Debian kernel configurations, but, as written the other day, we have not changed the sound configurations between 6.6 and 6.12, nothing except for wireless drivers and some extra sensor support.
You have a PM.
Im using Volumio X86 v4.0.73 with usb wifi dongle RTL8188FTV and i canāt connect to router from volumio GUI settingsā¦
In network settings i can found available wifi network, put the password but no connection successfullā¦
from ssh running
sudo wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
the connection start and goes ok, he got ip from router and its visible in GUI interface network settings as active connectionā¦ i guess hardware driver is working.
This mean that volumio create wpa_suplicant file with wifi detail but is not operate from volumio settings GUI.
Any others have this bug?
Iād tryed another dongle also, old RT5370 and same issueā¦

Unfortunately we cannot accept a fix without more info. Wireless concerns all Volumio platforms, it is not x86-specific.
In order to help you, the Volumio team and community devs need all information as requested in the very first post of this thread.
youāre right, thread purpose is for x86, iād shared log and lshw response, thatās all they need. wireless issue still here and volumio developer is not fixing it.
Sorry that you did not get my point. To be more precise, without you delivering the data as tequested, it is impossible to help you here.
what youāre talking about? iād shared the log required. sorry
Iām really sorry, missed that
Please avoid making assumptions here, thereās some background youāre missing.
The RTL8188FTV simply canāt run hotspot and WiāFi client at the same time.
The correct procedure is:
After that, WiāFi will connect as expected. If it is still failing we need to take a closer look.
nope, sorry but your trick is not working.
when i put wifi password popup ānetwork card correctly rebootedā but no connection show.
also rebooting without lan and put again wireless password, still the same.
This happens also with RT5370 usb adapter
Please upgrade to the latest version 4.080. We have spend a lot of hours on this subject.
Make sure to not manipulate any files.
If it is still failing post the following outputs:
systemctl status hostapd.service > /tmp/hostapd_service.txt
journalctl -u hostapd.service --no-pager > /tmp/journalctl_hostapd_service.txt
cat /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf > /tmp/hostapd_conf.txt
/tmp/wireless.log
Just upgraded to 4.080, booted without Lan and wifi connected perfectly.
Im using RT5370 usb adapter.
Thanks for support Wheaten.
I canāt enable WiFi in Volume 4. It only accepts wired network connection.
Error: Command failed:
sudo /bin/systemnctl restart
wireless.service Job for
wireless.service failed because the
service did not take the steps required
by its unit configuration. See
āsystemctl status wireless.serviceā and
ājournalctl -xeu wireless.serviceā for
details.
Can anyone offer me help? Can it be a bug? a driver?

Hi @gurusto

Without that info, weāre basically trying to solve a mystery with a thousand different x86 boards and fifty WiFi chips. Thatās less ātech supportā and more ālottery of doom."
Help us help you, otherwise weāll be stuck playing hardware bingo forever!
Thank you for responding.
The hardware worked well with V3. There was an error when installing the new V4 version.
As soon as I can, Iāll give you the full hardware relationship. Reinstall V3 and add system information to extract the device ratio.

Is it PC hardware compatibility issue ?
Any suggestion ? I tried several USB dongle but the same result.
