Hi， @OscarLi 

I tested with 2 IW612 modules, can connect P2P successfully.

Please see attached file for detailed steps.

With the referred steps, if still failed, please provide me full logs to check further.

Best regards,

Christine.

[OscarLi]

I tested with an IW611 module connect other module from other manufacturers
(non NXP). 

[Christine_Li]

Hi, @OscarLi 

Thanks for your reply.

Can you please try with my steps and let me know your results?

If still failed, please share me your full logs.

Best regards,

Christine.

Hi,  Christine Li 

      Two modules connect successfully. Thanks.

      But , IW611/2 firmware does not support the " wpa_cli -i p2p0 wps_pin 123456" command.

[Christine_Li]

Hi, @OscarLi 

Very glad to hear that can connect successfully on your side.

What do you want to do with this command " wpa_cli -i p2p0 wps_pin 123456."? to connect?

Later I can test on my local side.

Best regards,

Christine.

Hi, @Christine_Li ,

Start WPS PIN method for P2P connection.

A P2P client joins an existing group with a correct PIN code.

[Christine_Li]

Hi, @OscarLi 

Thanks for your quick reply.

So you prefer to use this method finish connection, right?

Best regards,

Christine.

[OscarLi]

Hi, @Christine_Li ,

 Yes.

Without PIN code, just PBC method, anyone can connect our device through mobile.

[Christine_Li]

Hi, @OscarLi 

I tested locally with below commands, it can connect successfully.

Please have a try on your side, and let me know whether it works for you.

On the GO side:

wps_pin <BSSID> <pin code>

On the client side:

p2p_connect <BSSID> <pin code> join

Attachment is my test steps and test results for your reference.

Best regards,

Christine.
