      Hello Modal AI team,

      I just flashed my Voxl2 with the newest SDK 1.6.3. The issue is I cannot seem to get station mode working with voxl-wifi. Is this a common bug or am I missing something here? Here is my system info from the abd shell "intro" for reference.

      Thanks!

        @Matt69 For further clarification, my understanding is that a 169.XXX.XXX.XXX IP address indicates off nominal wifi performance. Please advise.

        Thanks!

          Hi @Matt69 ,

          Yes, the shown ip address is a self-assigned address which happens if there is no ip address assigned by a DHCP server.

          What wifi module are you using?

          Does output of iwconfig wlan0 show that you are connected to your Access Point?

          Alex

            I'm also facing this after updating. Worked on an older version but it is now defaulting to the link local. One thing I noticed is that it doesn't go through the connection process (finding the network, trying password, etc) when using voxl-wifi, just skips all of it:

            Configuring station mode...
            Detected WiFi interface: wlan0
            NetworkManager not installed, using legacy wpa_supplicant/hostapd
            stopping softap mode
            Enabling station mode on wlan0 (legacy)...
            creating wpa_supplicant configuration for station mode
            Station mode enabled on wlan0
            Station mode configured!

            This is using the MCBL-00022 kit on the voxl2.

            Downgrading to 1.6.2 and the wifi works but seems a bit bugged because it cant find it at first even though it connects successfully :

            Detected WiFi interface: wlan0
            Disabling all WiFi modes...
            Detected WiFi interface: wlan0
            Scanning for network 'xxx'...
            Scan succeeded, looking for network 'xxx'
            Could not find network 'xxx' in scan results - proceeding anyway
            Enabling station mode on wlan0...
            creating wpa_supplicant configuration for station mode
            Station mode enabled on wlan0
            Station mode configured!
