Starling 2 max Not detecting Wifi hardware
-
I am setting up a new Starling 2 Max (SKU: MRB-D0012-4-V2-C28-T8-M11-X0) and am unable to configure Wi-Fi.
The system reports:
voxl-wifi getmode → Mode: undefined, Hardware: single-mode (None)
voxl-my-ip only shows 192.168.168.100 (usb0)
iw dev returns no wireless interfaces
ip link shows no wlan0 or uap0
ping 8.8.8.8 returns Network is unreachable
I also verified that the Wi-Fi driver module exists and loads successfully:
88XXau.ko is present under /lib/modules/4.19.125/
modprobe 88XXau loads without errors
lsmod shows 88XXau loaded
However, no wireless interface appears after loading the driver. This Starling was taken directly out of the box and has not been modified.
System information:
System Image: 1.8.06-M0054-14.1a-perf
VOXL Suite: 1.6.3
Hardware Platform: M0054
Kernel: 4.19.125
Could you please advise whether additional configuration is required or if there may be an issue with the Wi-Fi hardware or image installation?

Are you able to unplug the wifi adapter from USB and plug it back in (while VOXL2 is on) and check what kernel reports in
dmesg? -

This is the drone in question so how exactly do you mean Wifi adapter -

I don't have this config so I can't confirm, but It may not come with WiFi module out of the box.
It looks like the modem carrier board may support USB2, Referencing documentation here:
https://docs.modalai.com/microhard-add-on-datasheet/So you may be able to add:

To J4/J5 (or equiv) on your modem boardAnd one of the USB WiFi modules listed here:
https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-2-wifi-setup/
Note: We've had great performance with the AWUS036ACS as long as it is connected to a 2.4ghz network.Perhaps @Alex-Kushleyev can confirm if this setup will work through the modem USB ports.

@Alex-Kushleyev does it need additional usb wifi dongle?
