Let me get straight, I have Intel WiFi hotspot on my computer, I can broadcast and use the wireless internet at the same time, It works fine and I tested with my cell phone. There are few issues when i connect with RASPBERRY PI
when I broadcast my wifi (without sharing my internet) then my raspberry pi gets the IP address and rest is proper-NO ISSUE, (IP-192.168.1.5 something like ..)
but when I try to share my Internet (Intel wifi pro network software) and then broadcast my wifi then my raspberry pi is not getting the IP address, on my computer it shows connected and when I scan the IP its not listed. I don't know whats happening. Android phone works correctly but Raspberry PI is not requesting for IP i suppose(IP - 192.168.137.240 something like this ..)
My settings :
--- $ sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface eth0 inet dhcp allow-hotplug wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf iface default inet dhcp
---- $sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev update_config=1 network={ ssid="Intel-CP-HARSHA-VAIO" scan_ssid=0 psk="BONJOUR" # Protocol type can be: RSN (for WP2) and WPA (for WPA1) proto=WPA # Key management type can be: WPA-PSK or WPA-EAP (Pre-Shared or Enterprise) key_mgmt=WPA-PSK # Pairwise can be CCMP or TKIP (for WPA2 or WPA1) pairwise=TKIP group=TKIP #Authorization option should be OPEN for both WPA1/WPA2 (in less commonly used are SHARED and LEAP) auth_alg=OPEN } network={ ssid="Wifi-OTHER" key_mgmt=NONE auth_alg=OPEN }
and second, how do i make this wifi in continuous scan mode, mean every time of I restart my wifi hotspot the raspberry pi should automatically connect, I did all this before I re installed the OS and now its all screwed up ... I dont remember how I did, And i am certainly sure there was no background task and all I guess.
