#23 wlan0 won't acquire address using DHCP during boot

[Pavel Krupets]

Hello,

Verdex XL6P + netwifimicroSD + robostix
OpenEmbedded (SVN R318)

I use standard script to bring wlan0 up during boot but with no success (see attachments). After network is up if I execute ifconfig I got the following:

root@gumstix-custom-verdex:~$ ifconfig
lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1

TX packets:11 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:962 (962.0 B) TX bytes:248 (248.0 B)
Interrupt:128

Problem here is that address wasn't acquired from DHCP.

During boot I got the following errors (see attachment for the whole log):

Before register driver
After register driver
SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device
wlan0 No such device
udhcpc (v1.2.1) started
udhcpc[563]: udhcpc (v1.2.1) started
SIOCGIFINDEX failed!: No such device
udhcpc[563]: SIOCGIFINDEX failed!: No such device

To get it working for now I added the following script to the interfaces (see in attachment):

pre-up sleep 5
pre-up udhcpc -i wlan0

I hope someone can help me or direct me where can I find more info.

With regards,
Pavel Krupets
