How to connect STM32MP1-dk2 to wifi?

Hello,

Sorry for the easy question but I am facing an issue while connecting STM32MP1 to wifi. I have followed steps 1 to 3 (reference link). At the end of step 3, I can connect my STM32MP1 device from remote machine using the following command:

ssh root@10.0.0.88

However, when I execute the following command:

ping google.com or ping -c 6 google.com

It returns the following output:

ping: google.com: Temporary failure in name resolution

Something is wrong with the wifi setup (or not established properly). Could you please guide me how can I resolve this?

Thanking you,

Saurabh

    Hi @SChau.2062​ 

    First I rather recommend to use the second solution with systemd which is more robust and allow automatic connection after reboot.

    On my side I usually have similar error when I miss the step :Board $> dhclient wlan0

    Can it be your case ?

    Hope it help,

    Olivier

    Hi @Community member​ ,

    • With the reference to the first solution, when I type
    Board $> dhclient wlan0 

    then in the next step (following step) it doesn't display ip address.

    Board $>ip addr show wlan0

    • I tried the second solution with systemd (from here). In this case, I followed sections 1, 2 and 4. After that, I restarted STM32MP1DK2 device. When I type
    ifconfig

    still it doesn't display ip address it means it is not connected to internet.

    Please feel free to correct me!

    Thanks,

    Saurabh

    Hi @SChau.2062​ 

    I have no more clue.

    Could you please share results of :

    $> networkctl -a --no-pager

    and

      $> systemctl status wpa_supplicant@wlan0.service

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Following is the result of $> networkctl -a --no-pager:

    The output of  $> systemctl status wpa_supplicant@wlan0.service is as follow:

    FYI: I am going to connect STM32MP1 to my machine (wifi enabled) using Ethernet so that STM32MP1 will get internet connectivity through Ethernet.

    Thank you,
