Wi-Fi & Ethernet Testers Wanted

Definitely the right password. Will take a look for an open ticket. Thanks

Or a bug in the wpa_supplicant app, i’ve had this issue bothering me for quite sometime, the workaround i found is to downgrade to wpa_supplicant-2.0, but you 'll have to build it from haikuports.
ps: FWTW, i have an atheroswifi device too.

OK, all but the broadcom43xx drivers have now been synced to FreeBSD 11.1. DHCP is still an issue, but at least on one front, I think @tqh is investigating that.

I can test broadcom 4312
deviceid 4315

Is there no hope for BCM 4312 (14e4:4315)? I have one in a netbook that Haiku would be great for.

Unfortunately this NIC requires some strange, restricted firmware that I don’t really know how to work with, and trying to implement it “blind” (i.e. without hardware to test on) won’t really be easy. :frowning:

All upgrades complete as of hrev52118!

I’ve also started a branch to work on support for USB WiFi chipsets, but it’ll probably be some time before I get back to it…

yes, I had problems with it even in Ubuntu

Oh please, yes! USB wireless!

Great!

I have the following USB adapters:

Well, this is an issue of net_server which sometimes doesn’t bring up ethernet interface.

hello waddlesplash…
I have a Broadcom "BCM 4401-B0 ethernet device…
Device: 170c
it is not recognized at all!
Is there any hope?
Anyway WIFI is working very well now (iprowifi3945) it even did auto connect before hrev 52124…
so just like to know…
thanks very good work with the wifi part so far… happy! Thanks a lot Waddlesplash…

Hi,

I have a Kodlix N42-D and was able to boot into Haiku by setting the boot mode to Legacy, enabling CSM (I think those are the correct three letters), and setting all the things under that option to Legacy.

It’s a Pentium N4200 system with the Apollo Lake chipset.
The Wi-Fi device is:
device Network controller [2|80|0]
vendor 8086: Intel Corporation
device 3165: Wireless 3165
Which, I believe, should be covered by the iwm driver.

Ethernet is:
device Network controller (Ethernet controller) [2|0|0]
vendor 10ec: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
device 8168: RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller
That should be covered (I think) by the re driver.

However, using:
Haiku shredder 1 hrev52124 Jul 19 2018 21:03:54 x86_64 x86_64 Haiku
neither device shows up.

Am I wrong about this? If not, does anyone have any recommendations for getting either of them to work?

Thanks!

Yes, those both should work I believe. Please post a syslog somewhere and I’ll take a look.

rtl8139 ethernet works on rev52130 on 32-bit.

Seems to work sometimes, but disconnects and reconfigures quite a bit. However, this was after a restart. Starting up the system after install of Haiku and wifi started to work, but then stopped and had to restart.

I tried doing the Internet Speed Test on Google on the computer, but got a error: “The test can’t be completed due to a problem with the network.” However, I’m able to go to websites.
This computer is far-ish away from the modem, so I’ll try using it closer up to see if it’s a signal strength issue (I’m not sure though, because other websites load pretty quickly).
Edit: It also failed to get updates from SoftwareUpdater.
Edit2: Doing it a second time, and it seems to be working so far… got disconnect and reconfigure notifications again, but the updater hasn’t errored out yet, so we’ll see… Been sitting there for a while with 0 bar movement (on software updater) and it’s disconnected and reconnected twice now.

Note: this is a different computer from the one in which I tested the rtl8139 ethernet.

Disable HT. Check the user guide wlan section.

Thanks. It seemed to be working at first, however, eventually I got the disconnect and reconnect issue once again. It also seems that after reconnecting, I can view websites and ping ip addresses, but the HaikuDepot and SoftwareUpdate just stop downloading.

I also have the BCM4312 NIC in my Dell Inspiron (14e4:4315). Would like to get it going in Haiku. waddlesplash, if you need someone to test an implementation of it, I could do so and report back.
