Wifi won't connect

minisori

Hi,

I recently acquired a raspberry 3 b+ and i'm trying to get it working with batocera 5.18,
the only problem so far seems to be the wifi not working.

I noticed hidden ssid does not work so i setup an alternative wifi and checked if the file /var/lib/connman/recallbox_wifi.config was being generated correctly.

I'm able to connect from ssh or locally with a keyboard using connmanctl connect wifi_yadayada_managed_psk.

Any ideas how to track this bug?

I also found another bug, if you setup a second wifi in the recallbox.conf both generated config files in connman directory have the password from the second wifi.

I solved the problem adding de wifi configuration to the file /recalbox/share/system/network-connman.config.
But i'm still not able to configure any wifi from the GUI.

If somebody has troubles regarding wifi, I was able to connect ssh by ethernet and, rather than editing config files I followed this cheatsheet https://www.mankier.com/1/connmanctl to setup wifi which has the same effect but I find it more easy and you're more unlikely to break something
