Just flashed bone-eMMC-flasher-debian-10.3-iot-armhf-2020-04-06-4gb.img to my Beaglebone Blue, and everything looks OK except that when I scan for Wifi networks, I get nothing.
Where I’m at:
Now, the problem is that I don’t get anything in the services - not a jot. It worked when I first got the board, but since re-flashing the board it doesn’t.
Would appreciate any help.
@DirtFarmer please re-test with:
https://rcn-ee.net/rootfs/bb.org/testing/2021-09-01/buster-iot/
ps, ssh key generation will take a while, so WiFi/connmanctl won’t actually work for atleast the first minute or two after “first” bootup after flashing…

Oh, and I’ve connected a 12V supply as well in order to eliminate any potential power issues from the USB.
Thanks @RobertCNelson. I flashed that image to the board, still getting similar results. The only difference now is:
After first booting the board, I do get networks when entering services.
Then after trying to connect to my network, nothing - I get an error and the list is empty again.
What am I doing wrong??
i doubt it’s this: (add agent on)
services
agent on
connect wifi_........
What does the version.sh script print out?
sudo /opt/scripts/tools/version.sh

@RobertCNelson Many thanks for your help, it’s much appreciated.
I’ve spent quite some time trying to get this working, and in the end I tried the image bone-eMMC-flasher-debian-10.10-iot-armhf-2021-07-09-4gb.img from /rootfs/bb.org/testing/2021-07-09/buster-iot. And that worked <great success!>
The only thing I’m wondering about is why the later images don’t do wifi so well.
Again, many thanks.
