interface state UNINITIALIZED->DISABLED , AP-DISABLED while creating hotspot over single wifi adapter. #374

Open hackdelight opened 5 years ago

hackdelight commented 5 years ago

I'm using thinkpad x230, Ubuntu 18.04 in wifi settings the wifi name is: Centrino Advanced N-6205[Taylor Peak] (802.11a/b/g/n)

I can create hotspot while connected to wifi in windows 10 with one single wifi adapter. I tried to do the same in ubuntu 18.04 found create_ap program, installed it. used: sudo create_ap wlp3s0 wlp3s0 ssid password12345 got error:

Network Manager found, set ap9 as unmanaged device... DONE wlp3s0 is already associated with channel 13 (2472 MHz), fallback to channel 13 Creating a virtual WiFi interface... ap9 created. ERROR: Your adapter can not transmit to channel 13, frequency band 2.4GHz.

after that, i found from one of the issues that i should delete Channel=$WIFI_IFACE_CHANNEL in create_ap, then i got this error:

Network Manager found, set ap9 as unmanaged device... DONE wlp3s0 is already associated with channel 13 (2472 MHz), fallback to channel 13 Creating a virtual WiFi interface... ap9 created. Sharing Internet using method: nat hostapd command-line interface: hostapd_cli -p /tmp/create_ap.wlp3s0.conf.IWJ5Dfe2/hostapd_ctrl Configuration file: /tmp/create_ap.wlp3s0.conf.IWJ5Dfe2/hostapd.conf Using interface ap9 with hwaddr 6c:88:14:3b:6e:6a and ssid "beybi" Failed to set beacon parameters Interface initialization failed ap9: interface state UNINITIALIZED->DISABLED ap9: AP-DISABLED ap9: Unable to setup interface. ap9: interface state DISABLED->DISABLED ap9: AP-DISABLED hostapd_free_hapd_data: Interface ap9 wasn't started nl80211: deinit ifname=ap9 disabled_11b_rates=0 Error: Failed to run hostapd, maybe a program is interfering. If an error like 'n80211: Could not configure driver mode' was thrown try running the following before starting create_ap: nmcli r wifi off rfkill unblock wlan

It seems like ithe problem lies in

ap9: interface state UNINITIALIZED->DISABLED ap9: AP-DISABLED ap9: Unable to setup interface. ap9: interface state DISABLED->DISABLED ap9: AP-DISABLED

2472 MHz [13] (15.0 dBm) (no IR) NO-IR means you can't initiate radiation. Notify the kernel about the current regulatory domain: sudo iw reg set NZ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2
