WLan Wandbaord DL IP Problem

Joerg-SH — Thu, 04 Jul 2013 13:22:05 GMT

Hello,

on my Wandboard DL I have running a Yocto Image I think it is the linaro Ubuntu roootfs.

My Problem is I want to use a static IP but when I do that WLan take the static IP and a DHCP IP.

wandboard	192.168.2.26	40:2C:F4:AE:1F:46	WLAN 13 Mbit/s
wandboard	192.168.2.11	40:2C:F4:AE:1F:46	WLAN 13 Mbit/s

someone could help on this?

regards Joerg

I didn't get what you wish to do. Can you please elaborate?

For manual setting the WIFI you need wpa-supplication; for Yocto you'd most probably use connman and for Ubuntu you'd use NetworkManager. It has many possible ways of doing this so without a better understanding of your goal it is difficult to advice correctly.

I used the NetworkManager.

I conect the Board thru WLan to my WLan Router with static ip (192.168.2.11) but it is also conected by a second ip with same mac adress what i don´t want.

Those seem right; so it seems you're calling the setup but not disabling Network Manager.
