Debian Bookworm 12 In the process of adding a server in the basement of home,, and want to set up an actual mesh wifi setup,,between existing desktop Debian Bookworm 12 in office,,,running as houses AP to Cellular internet. In past its always been a hodge podge setup,,and for a couple years simply r...

steve_v Thank You for the input. The only reason considering this setup is two things. 1. None of the four 1GBE interfaces are being used. Doing all connections with Wifi6 on this box,,,so just wanting to maybe put to use the 4 ethernets. 2. Many areas of T-Mobile (consumer) service has finally hit...

T-Mobile Acadyan Gateway > Dell Poweredge R730 /w 4 Gbe ports - Debain 12 Bookworm Would there be any advantage of setting up two of the 4 Gbe ethrnet ports as bond and run two ethernet cables to the T-Mobile Acadyan WAN Gateway 2 available WAN ports. Has anyone ever tried this on Debian Don't think...

Aki Ok,,after much wrangling,,The fix was to change the channel (default) in the NM hotspot settings to 'channel1' ,, wich was the only channl showing to choose from. Never had to do this previously and noticed the card was always broadcasting on channel 13. Now,,,ALL Android devices does see this ...

Aki We have four Android phones in house,,from approx 2-5 years old. these all worked to this Debian machine with Bullseye. After upgrading to Bookworm,,,none of the Android phones sees the SSID now. Pretty sure it;s something to do with the Intel 7265 firmware wifi card that was updated,,but cant ...

friendlysalmon88 I did try your suggestion.for the sources.list .I appreciate the help. Unfortunately apt threw several 'no GPG keys ' errors for the repos. I wanted to clarify. it is actually an Intel ( AC7265) wifi card that the Android devices do not see. Just for completeness , Windows and Linu...

friendlysalmon88 Sorry i should have dropped some log files at least here is the 50 lines of dnsmasq logs , as well as an nmcli capture of the hotspot that is not seen by Android The listing is AP[1] , also i created another hotspot to see if it would be discovered by all devices on another test up...

Bullseye to Bookworm upgrade two days ago at almost the very end of the final upgrade process just couple percent left the upgrade exited with error 1. There was no actual message? Is there an upgrade log file hidden somewhere? I certainly couldn't find one. PROBLEM: Any middle of the road resolutio...

Thanks for all the feedback,on help. This was the fix for the dual problem this machine was having--- Boot into Windows 10 Open the Command Prompt (in Administrator Mode). Go to Start -> Command Prompt -> Right Click and "Run as Administrator". Type in the following command and press enter...

Hello All, This is not a Debian problem at all,but hoping maybe someone here,,smarter than I would have a workaround. On one of the three Dell Inspiron AIO we have at house setting up dual booting between Debian 12 and Windows 10 everything works as expected , BUT if this machine is booted into wind...

GREAT-DNG In regards to your wifi problem the Atheros AR9485, if you go into your system BIOS setting and disable Intel VT/D ,, this will fix the wifi random quitting. I faced the same problem on Debian 11 and now 12. Supposdedy adding the input "intel_iommu=off" to DEFAULT grub command l...

Hello All,

has anyone had success getting the Meditek MT7921k tri-band wifi card to run in both ap-sta mode

am very familiar with hostapd,but could not get it to work with this .

Thanks

@sunrat

Thanks for the link explaining this . I sure don't remember this feature in Android. Losing my mind,,,,without a doubt. Just noticed this pretty much by accident too.

Hello All, Am using Debian Bullseye as a server setup ,using dnsmasq for handing ip's to lan clients. I had a renewed look into finding mac addresses on my lan to ip addresses being handed out. On an Android phone i look at the WIFI mac address in the settings. Then i do 'arp -a (ip address of this ...
