Hi noop

It’s 22:21 here so I’ll hit the sack but at somepoint I will try some other dongles I have.

I’ll uninstall AP each time before putting in another dongle and trying again.

I’m gutted but just so thankful for all the effort and hours you have tried to help me sort this.

Thanks noop

I’ll see what happens with these and I’ll post it on here

Hi noop

Sadly no sign of the wireless signal from the Pi

I have another pi and new dongle, maybe I ought to give that a go…

And maybe you’d like to take a break from this anyhow as you’ve been just great, really great

14. Januar 2016 at 23:46 #17877

Noop, I’m going to turn off my router so there’s zero chance of any issues with it

it’s going to be a few minutes before I can get back on line, won’t be long

my other dongle is here also. IT doesnt look like yours but it suppose to be the same, just so you know

[Alex]

Alex

14. Januar 2016 at 22:55 #17865

The LAN is discconnected…………..

The URL you gave me did’nt work

But this does, I can see all the max2pages

192.168.1.13

I guess because it’s going through my router, like it was when I thought it worked the other day

I say its going through my router as I can’s see another network on my iphone or ipad in the settings control

Hi noop

Ran the program and got to this line below, ran it and got what you see and it hung.

Furthermore, I can’t see 192.168.1.13, THIS is the max2play address, I could see it before…

Please note I have deleted my ip address of my router and out in brackets ( MY ROUTERS ADDRESS)

Hi Noop

Sorry I did’nt get back to you yesterday, the celebrations lasted longer than i anticipated.

Ok tonight started off bad and could be getting worse , hahahah

I just could’nt format my sd card…God knows why. It’s taken me nearly an hour of trying different sd cards all the same, ran the virus software, no problems.

I got it to format the card by running the format tool at the same time as the installation. And so far I have got this far and things seem ok.

I have done all you have said and before I went to the Pi to input the code you gave me I fired up my lan scanner and it sees the max2play url (192.168.1.13) and the edimax dongle (192.168.1.11). However, not sure if this is important, as well as it saying edimax, it also say max2play in the same description box.
And remember this is hooked into my lan at this point.

Ok I ran the first line, no problem. Did the second one and got this

pi@max2play ~ $ cd /usr/sbin
pi@max2play /usr/sbin $ sudo rm -f hostapd
sudo: unable to resolve host max2play

13. Januar 2016 at 17:28 #17829

Hi Noop
Thanks I will, thats very kind of you.

Catch up with you a little later even if its that late I can just run it and pass on the results

13. Januar 2016 at 10:16 #17825

Hi Noop

I can’t thank you enough for your efforts and certainly no need to say sorry.

Ok, I will do this as soon as I can, but tonight it’s my mum’s birthday and its a big one so there’s a bit of a party on so I could be late back. But I will do my best as I’m really keen to get this going. And like Fred, I placed an order for an RT3570 last night…But not sure when it will be here, and if it does’nt work, I’ll use it for a player only, or something else, so no problem or loss.

Ok I’ll be back on the case as soon as I can

Hi Fred
good to hear from you
Noop is the hero in this one by far, amazing effort he’s put in to a complete stranger.

But you started it, so thanks for your bit too. Tell you what Fred, if your dongle does work regardless if we get this going in the meantime, would be so kind to let me, and noop I guess know.

sorry noop, the excitement got the better of me

but alas, sadly no luck with this either

12. Januar 2016 at 21:05 #17817

ok, now should i reboot noop while this is still running or just plug it in, sorry for the stupid question

[Alex]

Alex

12. Januar 2016 at 21:00 #17815

actually, strike the last one, I went to my car to try it last week and it did’nt work

[Alex]

Alex

12. Januar 2016 at 20:58 #17814

the other issue…

Im sat at the side of my router, could this be swamping the rf from the wifi dongle ?
god forbid !

[Alex]

Alex

12. Januar 2016 at 20:56 #17813

would installing shairtunes2 help,?
Ok I know I cant see the access point and I know you need shairtunes2 to work with apple kit, but does installing shairtunes2 do anything with the dongle,

It’s a long shot, but don’t know what more to suggest

[Alex]

Alex

12. Januar 2016 at 20:48 #17812

Hi noop,

Really?
I’m gobsmacked !

Well I have just tried it on my touch, two iPads, iPhone and a Lenovo tablet running kodi and none of them can see it

I could try one of the Pi dongles, from Pi

Hi again noop,

Thanks for this

I’ve run the commands twice

Each time they come up with the same thing
Ioctl[RTL_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: Invalid argument

And the cut and paste issue

I am writing the commands by looking at the Pi command prompt via a monitor on the Pi HDMI
The monitor is also attached to my pic and I can switch between them, depending what I’m doing but to confuse things even more, I’m writing this on my iPad all because I have to keep moving the dongle for the wireless keyboard between the Pi and Pc.
The bottom line is I know how to do cut and paste, but not in this situation going from a Linux command prompt to a web page, hope this makes sense.

Incidentally , my two „Pi“ dongles have arrived
