Hello,
I am trying to setup a wireless hotspot with my xs36v barbone. Unfortunately when I start hostapd, I have got the following error:
hostapd -dd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
nl80211: Add own interface ifindex 3
nl80211: Add own interface ifindex 4
nl80211: New interface mon.wlan0 created: ifindex=8
nl80211: Add own interface ifindex 8
Could not set interface mon.wlan0 flags: Operation not possible due to RF-kill
nl80211: Remove interface ifindex=8
nl80211: Failed to set interface wlan0 into AP mode
nl80211 driver initialization failed.
ELOOP: remaining socket: sock=4 eloop_data=0x842e900 user_data=0x842eeb0 handler=0x807c5e0
ELOOP: remaining socket: sock=6 eloop_data=0x8430cb8 user_data=(nil) handler=0x8086770
I tried with different drivers like mac80211.
I did install the drivers from Realtek website (rtl_92ce_92se_92de_linux_mac80211_0005.1230.2011) and the latest linux-firmware_1.84_all.deb
But I can't make it work for any reason. Any help would be welcome. Do I need to move to a newest kernel to make it work?
Thanks

Your main problem is that your kernel is too old. A lot of changes have been
made since 3.2.0. If you obtain the bleeding-edge compat-wireless package for
your system, you are likely to have more success. That will get the wireless
code that will not be released for about 3 months, rather than using what was
available 1 year ago.

Thanks Larry for your help.
I tried 3.4.6 and 3.5.0 Quantal kernels but they didn't boot with my i8042 keyboard chip.
So I have installed 3.2.23-030223 and it now starts OK.
FYI here is the new log (I ll have to investigate why the auth between the endpoint and the hotspot doesn't work)

Yes, we do make progress. Kernel 3.2.23 has the bug fixes backported from later
kernels, but there are additional changes that cannot be implemented as they are
too intrusive. You may still need to incorporate compat-wireless.

great following this thread to make my own compat-wireless:

I hope it's accurate

A quick read shows that they have you pulling the entire wireless-testing tree.
If you do that, then build that kernel and skip compat-wireless. I think the
URLs have changed since 2009.
If you have your kernel headers installed, and /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build is
a link to a directory containing directory include/ with those headers, then you
can built the compat-wireless package.

Hi Larry and the team,
couldn't install my compiled (make + checkinstall) package.
sudo dpkg -i compat-wireless-2012-07_03-1_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 214923 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking compat-wireless-2012-07 (from compat-wireless-2012-07_03-1_i386.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing compat-wireless-2012-07_03-1_i386.deb (--install):
trying to overwrite '/bin/ntfs-3g', which is also in package ntfs-3g 1:2012.1.15AR.1-1ubuntu1
dpkg-deb: error: subprocess paste was killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
compat-wireless-2012-07_03-1_i386.deb
Should I just to a make install instead?
Thanks

Yes. Using "make" and "sudo make install" is the correct way. Building a .deb.
may be necessary to install a whole kernel (it is not on my distro), but not for
compat-wireless.

For some reason my system has become unstable since the installation of the compat-wireless drivers. :-(
I installed those drivers "compat-wireless-2012-07-03" by doing a make/ make install

Remote VNC works ok but it s difficult to get a ssh session established.
When I launch sudo hostpad, I can't do a ctrl C anymore to stop it.

You need to "bite the bullet" and install a newer kernel such as 3.4 or 3.5, I
know the RTL8188CE works with hostapd in those versions.

Thanks Larry for your inputs.
>From this thread it looks like it's not a given piece of work to get the RTL8188CE stable.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/902557
Anyway I have started to compile the 3.4.6 kernel see how it goes. I hope I don't need to add the compat-wireless drivers on top?
Will report in more than 4h after the make is completed :D

That Ubuntu report is for kernel 3.2. As I said before, we are making progress!!!!!
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=797709 for a better example.
I think 3.4.6 will be OK, but if you need compat-wireless, it will work OK there.

Cool let's get this sorted then.
Here is the output now with the 3.4.6 kernel. If you prefer me to try with the 3.5, I can.
thanks

I'm not sure why you are getting that error -23 (too many open files). Is that
number set artificially low for some reason? What does
cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
report? On my system, it is 300000.
Attached is a script file that I use to start an AP on my system. Please try it
and see if it works differently. You mnay have to adjust the symbols for
different locations of hostapd, etc, and the address of the wireless network
that is currently set at 192.168.0.X. The script is run with
sudo ./control_ap start <name_of_wireless_iface> <name_of_external_iface>
or
sudo ./control_ap stop
For a normal configuration, the command would be "control_ap start wlan0 eth0".
In addition, one of the attachments in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=797709 is a hostapd configuration
file that works. You might compare it with yours.

Thanks for your script and the working config file.
1/ here is my output of "cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max"
333653
2/ I have compared the working hostapd.conf file with mine here are the differences: (working file -> mine)
#bridge=br0 -> bridge=br0
ssid=home -> ssid=Sweet Home 2 (and wpa_passphrase changed)
then it gives me another error message when I launch hostapd:

In my case, I don't have a dhcp server but I use isc-dhcp-relay in order to reuse my master DHCP server for wireless endpoints. The advantage over one single point of control is that fixed and wireless endpoints will share the same network 192.168.0/24.
/etc/default/isc-dhcp-relay
# What servers should the DHCP relay forward requests to?
SERVERS="192.168.0.254"
# On what interfaces should the DHCP relay (dhrelay) serve DHCP requests?
INTERFACES="wlan0"
# Additional options that are passed to the DHCP relay daemon?
OPTIONS="-d"
Here are the results when using Larry's script:
sudo ./control_ap.sh start wlan0 eth0

I think the problem I am having is the same as without the script.
Do you want me to enable additional logging? (plz confirmed how to do so)

I finally finished the bug bisection that I was doing and set up an RTL8188CE
with my script on wireless-testing 3.5.0, which is the same wireless code as you
will get with the bleeding-edge compat-wireless. BTW, that is the wireless code
that will be in 3.6.0 in about 3 months. When I started my script, I got the
following:

What version of hostapd are you using? Mine is 1.0.
You need to use compat-wireless and make certain that hostapd is new enough. I
think 0.7.3 would be OK.

Hi Larry,
I am using hostapd v0.7.3 but I did not install the bleeding-edge compat-wireless drivers.
What I noticed is that your script refers to module se while I have a ce. (I am not sure if this can impact or explain the differences between your setup and mine).
When I download the drivers from http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download#Where_to_download_bleeding_edge, I got this file "compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2" which contains maybe a too old version compat-wireless-2012-05-10.
Should I install this version?
If I install kernel 3.5.0, will I still need to install the compat-wireless drivers?
Thanks

Hum the issue is now different as I don't have anymore the wlan0 interface:
iwconfig
br0 no wireless extensions.
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.

The SE was in the ESSID. Do you think that matters?? The chip I used was an
RTL8188CE, the same as yours.
You need to install the bleeding-edge compat wireless from
http://wireless.kernel.org/download/compat-wireless-2.6/compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2.
That sounds like the version you got.
Installing kernel 3.5 0 will get older drivers than compat-wireless. That is the
way that kernel development works. The ones in 3.5.0 should be OK, but
installing compat would be easier than generating a 3.5 kernel.

So I have download the file from your link which provides a directory called: "compat-wireless-2012-05-10". I was using one called "compat-wireless-2012-07-03".
FYI I already compiled the 3.5 kernel but as you recommend I keep using the 3.4.6 for now as it will not necessary bring something new around the rtl8188ce wifi driver.
FYI there should be something wrong in the README as if I do:
root@HTPC:/home/xabix/tmp/compat-wireless-2012-05-10# ./scripts/driver-select rtl8192ce
Processing new driver-select request...
Backing up makefile: Makefile.bk
Unsupported driver
I ve got the Unsupported driver message
Anyway I am compilling them all based on the link you suggested: compat-wireless-2012-05-10
Will report when done

Hi Larry,

but I don't see enough logs to know why after the association there is a deauthentication.

but the signal is very weak so maybe that was one of the issues.
I am looking fwd to remove the power mgt stuff and maybe find out how to increase the signal power. Maybe I should be a kind of antennat but not sure this will work with a barebone like the xs36v.
Merci

I run mine, when I test AP mode, without any options.
I'm glad you got it working. Now you know why I recommend spending 40 euro for
an AP rather than trying to use a 600 euro computer for that purpose. BTW, I own
4 AP/routers.

My goal was to have a low power server that runs 24h for wireless, domotic, ... but I didn't find how to increase the signal and remove the power mgt.
Have you had to add parameters in your rtl8192ce.conf file in modprobe?
I found this device in my garage :) which is known to be working well so I may try it just to compare the signal strengths between both
rtl8187 Alfa AWUS036H 0x0bda 0x8187
Again I would like to thank you again for all your reactive support in order to help me making my on-board pci wifi card working. At least I can now make a choice depending on the signal length.
FYI I did find that the BW was quote low with the rtl8188ce AP. Did you notice the same issue?

A part of "modinfo rtl8192ce" says
parm: ips:Set to 0 to not use link power save (default 1) (bool)
Load the modules with "sudo modprobe rtl8192ce ips=0" or create the appropriate
rtl8192ce.conf file, and power saving is disables.
The RTL8187L, the chip in the AWUS036H will never work in AP mode. It has only
one hardware queue, and getting the timing right for beacons is extremely
difficult, and not worth the effort.
> Have you had to add parameters in your rtl8192ce.conf file in modprobe?
Except for testing, I use no module parameters. If any were always necessary, I
would change the default.

Good to know so I will not waste my time with this AWUS036H device.
FYI a good blog on the sharing a wireline and wireless network, setthing up the AP with dhcp, proxy ARP etc...
http://savvyadmin.com/virtualbox-wireless-bridging-with-dhcp/
AS you suggested, I only kept ips=0 for my rtl8192ce
/etc/modprobe.d/rtl8192ce.conf
options rtl8192ce ips=0
# ips:Set to 0 to not use link power save (default 1)
# swlps:Set to 1 to use SW control power save (default 0)
# fwlps:Set to 1 to use FW control power save (default 1)
# debug:Set debug level (0-5) (default 0) (int)
(any cheap, good and working USB wifi device which has more power than an embedded chip as the rtl8188 ? it's a shame that we can't add just an antenna vs another wifi hw)

One of the Alfa AWUS036 models has an RTL8188CU chip in it. I think it ends in
HR. Besides that, there are a number of devices that use the rt2800usb or ath9k
variants that have external antennas.
I cannot run my RTL8188CE as an internal device as it is not white listed by my
BIOS, thus I have no idea how well it works with standard laptop antennas.

I can't tell you as I don't have a laptop either, I have a xs36v which is a barebone so it's all embedded.
What do you mean by "it s not white listed by my BIOS"?

I did some ADSL test connected through the wireless.
When I use my router wifi (bcm57xx) I get 20 times a better download than with the rtl8188 chip. The upload is exactly the same and both are connected with g.
Signal is lower but still good at 4/5 meters from the barebone.
Any potential reason?

In my tests, the RTL8192CE has throughput of roughly 20 Mbps when connected to
an 802.11g network as a station. As 27 is the maximum, 20x is impossible. When
an 802.11n connection is used, I get about 80 Mbps. You need to give a detailed
setup, and actual numbers, preferably when connected to a local host, not
something on the Internet.

Driver rtl8192ce is optimized to work as a station. If you want better
performance as an AP, you will have to sort that out yourself.

Laptops made by HP and Lenovo, and maybe others, have a BIOS that contains
information about what wireless cards are approved - the so-called white list.
If you install a card not on the list, the machine refuses to boot.
