Linux on Kobo - wifi trouble
Hi,
I have a Kobo Touch model N905C running Marek's linux image in dual boot. https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=222123 I am having problems connecting the linux image to wifi. The suggested work-around is to boot into Nickel, connect to wifi, then boot into linux and connect wifi. This works ONLY IF the wifi is connected to the Internet - for both the Linux distro as well as for Nickel. My problem is that I dont have internet on my wifi, and Nickel nor Linux wont connect. I have tried 2 different wfi ap's with security on and off, all with the same result. Why would Internet be required for successfull wifi connection? Is there a firewall or iptables or similar configured to prevent wifi connections when there is no internet connection from the wifi? |
