Help troubleshoot hostapd connection problem

Open tim-moody opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

  • laptop connects to iiab hotspot on rpi W2 with updown true and latest raspios and latest iiab from repo
  • gets ip in 10.10.10.x
  • with nmcli connects wlan0 to upstream router - no problem
  • disconnects using nmcli con delete
  • intermittent problem that can no longer ssh to box.lan or 10.10.10.10 nor access in browser
  • says box.lan is unknown host
  • disconnect laptop from iiab hotspot and reconnect
  • laptop has correct ip
  • access problem recurs
  • power cycling fixes problem

can this be a resolver problem, but why is 10.10.10.10 not found? hostapd seems to be running any ideas?

We've seen weird DNS problems that were eventually side-effects of other problems. Reading this ticket reminded me of it. Not sure it will help at all but the ticket is at https://github.com/offspot/container-images/issues/43

Given that this will only be used occasionally, I think the best option is just to automatically reboot.
