wifi client not working
I'm trying to setup wifi client mode (station) an it does not appear to work. After configuring it, the interface never comes up, nor does the nic connect to the wireless network. After configuring, the iwinfo command lists nothing.

Re: wifi client not working
In my experience, the best and easiest way to set up networks is through LuCi

Re: wifi client not working
I'm having pretty much exactly the same issue.
After attempting to configure station mode (using Vonger's mt7628.ko driver) there's no attempt to associate.
Even calling "/etc/init.d/network restart" is ineffective.
Anyone get station mode working on 18.06+? With either the mt76 or mt7628 driver?

Re: wifi client not working
better to use AP+STA and hide SSID...
mt7628 driver can not support pure STA mode as I know.

Re: wifi client not working
I can't even get AP+STA mode functioning, though the goal (and a project requirement) is to run in station-only mode.
Thanks for letting me know mt7628 is a dead end.
I'll have to switch back to mt76.
I'm hoping station-only mode works with that driver?

Re: wifi client not working
After u-booting a stock-image (20170527.bin) and uploading the latest OpenWRT compilation, I get this mess:
So that doesn't go smoothly.
It's obvious the proprietary driver's configuration and the open-source driver don't quite mesh.
The result is a second radio entry that's probably mis-configured.
Flicking around a few settings to enable "radio1" while disabling "radio0" doesn't seem to affect anything.
I can't get the thing to beacon.
At the end of the day, I'm just looking to get an SPI peripheral attached to an existing wireless network in a semi-secure (WPA2-PSK), open-source manor.
