Not sure if there is a better area to post this, but it said to submit something in the forums if the wireless adapter wasn't showing up.

 

I have:

MEDIATEK Corp. MT7921 802.11ax PCI Express Wireless Network Adapter   

 

Diagnostic log is attached

 

tower-diagnostics-20250410-1034.zip

There's no driver, which is not surprising, since according to the release notes:

 

wireless support

Atheros/Qualcomm

Broadcom

Intel

Marvell

Realtek

 

But I'll ask LT to see if that driver can be included in the next release and post an update here when I know.

Thank you!

This driver will be included for the next release, which will probably be 7.1.0-rc1

@Camborkthis should now work with -rc1, please retest to confirm.

@JorgeB  Updated yesterday and the wireless interface does seem to be recongized now!   However, its failing when I try to enable it.

Appricate you adding the driver so quickly.

The driver appears to be working correctly, are you able to try and connect to a network, or does it just fail after enabling Wi-Fi?

It never gets to the point of selecting a wifi network.

 

If I manually enable the wifi interface using ifconfig from the terminal, then it does at least shows wifi networks when I enable it from the UI, but it still doesn't let me actually connect.

@bonienlany idea what the issue could be? The driver is installed but it fails to connect/list any networks:

Apr 13 09:29:04 Tower rc.wireless: Starting WiFi network...
Apr 13 09:29:04 Tower rc.wireless: iw reg set US
Apr 13 09:29:14 Tower rc.wireless: WiFi network... Failed.

 

 

Can you open a terminal window and type

ip link set wlan0 up

 

Then open the wireless page and see if it populates.

 

You need to click on the wifi icon to join a network.

 

Ok, I found a bug which explains your issue, will be fixed in the next release.

 

As a workaround, set the "Regulatory region" to your country instead of ''automatic' and then join a network.

 

@bonienl  Thanks for looking into the problem.   I just wanted to add some details, as I'm not sure if the bug you found is for the same issue I'm running into.

 

If I set my "Regulatory Region" and then enable WIFI,  its still failing:

 

 

 

 

If I manually enable the wifi interface like you suggested, it does appear to actually scan for networks.  However, its still failing and won't let me select one to connect with.

 

Can you post your diagnostics?

 

There's another user with a Mediatek adapter having issues, so maybe something specific to them, I've asked him to post the diags here.

I've added the digs in my post but now also here. Hope you guys will finde something

Do you have any PHP errors?

Check: Tools -> PHP Settings -> View Log

 

A lot. I think by spamming the WiFi symbol

Can you post the content of rc.ssl.input

cat /etc/rc.d/rc.ssl.input

Thanks, I see what is happening, will make a fix for the next release.

 

I'm seeing the same errors.

 

Thanks!

@CptRetro@Camborkplease retest with 7.1.0-rc.2

@JorgeB works like a charm! Thanks a lot

One more question. I successfully joined my network but a management access and even a ping is not possible. Is there another config necessary?

There shouldn't be, please post the diagnostics.
