Hi. This is not strictly a gentoo problem, but I would like advise |
| 2 |
from people on how to get my wifi card to see the internet. |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
On my new box I have the following card: |
| 5 |
00:14.3 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless-AC 9560 |
| 6 |
[Jefferson Peak] (rev 10) |
| 7 |
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Wireless-AC 9560 [Jefferson Peak] |
| 8 |
Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
Now, I wanted to serve other computers with this device and so emerged |
| 11 |
hostapd. Then after some configuration fooling around with |
| 12 |
/etc/hostap/hostapd.conf, I got things to the point where the card |
| 13 |
comes up and is seen by other devices. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I set the device up on its own network at 192.168.3.1 by using the |
| 16 |
following unit file: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
[Unit] |
| 19 |
Description=Network Connectivity for %i |
| 20 |
Documentation=man:ip |
| 21 |
Before=network.target |
| 22 |
Wants=network.target |
| 23 |
BindsTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-%i.device |
| 24 |
After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-%i.device |
| 25 |
[Service] |
| 26 |
Type=oneshot |
| 27 |
RemainAfterExit=yes |
| 28 |
EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/network@%i |
| 29 |
ExecStart=/bin/ip link set dev %i up |
| 30 |
ExecStart=/bin/ip addr add ${address}/${netmask} broadcast ${broadcast} dev %i |
| 31 |
ExecStart=-/bin/bash -c "test -n ${gateway} && /bin/ip route add default via ${gateway}" |
| 32 |
ExecStart=-/bin/bash -c "test -f /etc/conf.d/postup@%i.sh&&/bin/bash -c /etc/conf.d/postup@%i.sh" |
| 33 |
ExecStop=/bin/ip addr flush dev %i |
| 34 |
ExecStop=/bin/ip link set dev %i down |
| 35 |
ExecStop=-/bin/bash -c "test -f /etc/conf.d/postdown@%i.sh&&/bin/bash -c /etc/conf.d/postdown@%i.sh" |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
[Install] |
| 38 |
WantedBy=multi-user.target |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
and the following in /etc/conf.d/network@wlan0 |
| 41 |
address=192.168.3.1 |
| 42 |
netmask=24 |
| 43 |
broadcast=192.168.3.255 |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
and also added the following route |
| 46 |
route add -net 192.168.3.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eno1 |
| 47 |
but still I cannot get packets out to the internet. I can ping |
| 48 |
the device from my console, but that is it. |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
I am not sure whether I am missing something in my hostapd.conf or |
| 51 |
somewhere else. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
Thanks in advance for any suggestions. |
