Can't connect to wifi on Beagle Bone Black

General Discussion
1

Recently set up a beagle bone black with a Debian image. When I try to run the command “scan wifi”, I get this error message: Error /net/connman/technology/wifi: Method “Scan” with signature “” on interface “net.connman.Technology” doesn’t exist.

Any help appreciated!

Hello @vivek378 ,

I think w/ the updated images, one would need to use sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-wlan0.conf

Then…

sudo wpa_cli -i wlan0 reconfigure

That should help.

P.S. If you are using an older image, then connmanctl was the older way.

strange that you say that you are using a BBB, but do not specify the wifi add-on that you are using… you are aware that the stock BBB does NOT have a wifi capability aren’t you?

are you punking us?
