dhcp isn't working

[A-rotten-Orange]

Hi
I am having problems with the dhcp on fruity wifi.
when I start wireless and I try and connect to it via a laptop or my phone dhcp always times out but if i set it to a static address on my laptop or phone it works fine.

Hi A-rotten-Orange,
What wireless card are you using? What linux distribution are you using?
Please note that Realtek chipset it is not supported by Hostapd/Karma.
(Hostapd is what FruityWifi uses to handle wireless)

#19 (comment) am having same issue : i am using RT2870/RT3070 Wireless Adapter on kali linux raspberry image, but the issue isn't with adapter - the dhcp-server isn't giving out any addresses. is it suppose to be an independent dncp server( like dhcp3 or isc-dhcp-server ) or it is something that works via karma/hostadp?

Yes, I also have this problem, my card is 3070

Hi,
I don't have an RT2870 and RT3070 to try them. (If the chipset is Realtek it will not work because Hostapd is not compatible)
FruityWifi uses Hostapd + dnsmasq to setup the AP.
Could any of you confirm if any of those cards are working with Hostapd + dnsmasq (standalone, without using FruityWifi)
I will create a script to test wireless cards as soon as possible.

hi I'm using the AR9271 and 3720 the same effect. opens Wireless can search for Win-R, but the connection has been in a state to obtain IP, specify the IP 10.0.0.22 after a successful connection but no Internet access. How can I help you need to solve the problem?

By the way, I am from China ,using Google translate ,hope not too hard .Thanks!

Yes, i tested a few moments ago,
If you want to test You must login in CLI by ssh and create a file to use with hostapd.

Something like this.
1- create a file : nano myhostapdminimalconfiguration

Put this inside
#change wlan0 to your wireless device
interface=wlan0
driver=nl80211
ssid=test
channel=1

2- run "sudo hostapd myhostapdminimalconfiguration"

3- test if you "see" the test network!

Hi bobtux,
Thanks for share this details with other users.
I will try to make a script as soon as possible to verify wireless cards.
Note that tomorrow (2014-10-10) we are releasing FruityWifi v2.0 that will support more chipsets.

Hi,
I have a netis wifi adapter having RTL8188CUS chipset which supports AP mode with a patched hostapd. I have made a raspberry pi web server using patched-hostapd and dhcp . And as been stated in FruityWifi v2.0 , that it supports realtek chipsets, then which realtek chipset in perticular, because its not working with RTL8188CUS chipset.
Please reply.
Regards
Ravi

Hi Rworld-Ravi,
FruityWifi uses a combination of Hostapd (3 diff versions that not support Realtek) and Dnsmasq.
You can use [AP] mode Airmon-ng with Realtek chipsets and others not supported by Hostapd.

For the moment, I'm not planning to include a patched version of Hostapd to support Realtek.

Thanks for reply,
Then please suggest some ( as i'll have to look around for
availability ) wifi adapter for RPi-2 which will work best with
Fruitywifi.????
