 Posted: Sat Jun 21, 2014 4:00 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] Has anyone got Wifi to work on Lenovo X1 Carbon? |
 |
|
HW is Intel Wireless 7260
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/wireless-products/dual-band-wireless-ac-7260-bluetooth.html
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi
I run kernel 3.12.13-gentoo
dmesg gives
[ 8.073580] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: request for firmware file 'iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode' failed.
I use the latest firmware package from the gentoo tree:
sys-firmware/iwl7260-ucode
Latest version available: 22.24.8.0
Latest version installed: 22.24.8.0
Size of files: 338 kB
Homepage: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi
Description: Firmware for Intel (R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260
License: ipw3945
When i look into the directory where the firmware is installed I get
# ls /lib/firmware/
intel iwlwifi-7260-8.ucode
The driver seems to look for iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode while the available firmware is iwlwifi-7260-8.ucode
Has anyone got a solution to this problem?

can't really help but will report that my T440S with
intel 7260 works (Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 (rev 6b))
with .8 firmware
you can get .7 here:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi#Download
here's what they say on that page:
| Quote: | Intel® Wireless 7260
3.10+ iwlwifi-7260-ucode-22.1.7.0.tgz
3.13+ iwlwifi-7260-ucode-22.24.8.0.tgz
3.14+ iwlwifi-7260-ucode-23.214.9.0.tgz
|
But I tried the .9 and it did not work even though I'm on 3.14 kernel
EDIT: out of curiousity I tried the .9 firmware with gentoo-sources-3.15.0-r1 and
it works fine for me on T440S

Thanks albright,
I tried the 3.10+ iwlwifi-7260-ucode-22.1.7.0.tgz version and now my HW i detected!
# dmesg | grep iwlwifi

philip ... wireless-tools (of which iwconfig is part) uses the now legacy WEXT (wireless extensions) and not NL80211/CFG80211/MAC80211 (netlink). If you want to use these tools you need to enable CFG80211_WEXT (the WEXT compatibility layer) in the kernel.
You didn't mention what driver you're using for wpa_supplicant, you want '-Dnl80211', you can provide this either on the command line, or via /etc/conf.d/net, eg:
| Code: | | wpa_supplicant_wlp3s0="-Dnl80211 -qq" |
Your wpa_supplicant.conf is defining ctrl_interface and its 'group' multiple times, you just need the following (dependent on what group you want to be able to have access, here 'wheel').
| Code: | # Allow users in the 'wheel' group tp control wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
#Let wpa_supplicant take care of scanning and AP selection
ap_scan=1
# A simple case: WPA-PSK, PSK, as an ASCII passphrase, allow all valid ciphers
network={
ssid="simple"
psk="very sectres passphrase"
# The higher the priority the sooner we are matched
priority=5

I have the Intel 7260 AC in my router set up as an Access point. I used kernel 3.13.6 to start with now days I have 3.14.1 if i recall.
its much better to get the proper firmware from
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi#Firmware
Then make sure the firmware match your kernel.
Gentoo package do not contain the latest firmwares (last I checked) and iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode was causing my card to stop responding randomly for me at least, might be a bug with access point mode only.
Atm I am using iwlwifi-7260-8.ucode.
iwlwifi-7260-9.ucode is sad to be 3.14 compatible but its not at least not with earlier 3.14.X kernels. I spoke with the intel dev a month or so ago and he didnt know when the changes would merge in with 3.14.X but the 3.15 kernel do support iwlwifi-7260-9.ucode.
I suggest upgrading your kernel to 3.13.6 at least or preferably 3.14 and try iwlwifi-7260-8.ucode.
Other then that its more about configuring the card properly.
I run my card in AP mode so my settings migth not be that useful.
I have had no problems since I got my card set up properly so they do seem to work pretty well except that intel NEVER will support AC speeds in AP mode according to the intel Dev I spoke with that manages the driver and firmware.

OK,
Now I have
# grep CFG80211_WEXT .config
| Code: | | CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT=y |
# iwconfig

if I do
#ifconfig iwl3s0 up
and
# iwlist wlp3s0 scan
It seems like my laptop can communicate with the Access Point

wpa_supplicant_wlp3s0="-Diwlwifi -iwlp3s0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf"
config_wlp3s0="dhcp" |
As you can see I am using the iwlwifi driver, which seems to be the right one according to pa1983
# ls /lib/firmware/
| Code: | | intel iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode |
My wpa_supplicant.conf is now
# cat /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
| Code: | # Allow users in the 'wheel' group tp control wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
#Let wpa_supplicant take care of scanning and AP selection
ap_scan=1
# A simple case: WPA-PSK, PSK, as an ASCII passphrase, allow all valid ciphers
network={
ssid="[i]my_AP_SSID[/i]"
psk="[i]the PSK passphrase[/i]"
# The higher the priority the sooner we are matched
priority=5
} |
However the line
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
seems to be wrong. There is no /var/run/wpa_supplicant
# ls /var/run/wpa_supplicant
ls: cannot access /var/run/wpa_supplicant: No such file or directory
Which is the right ctrl_interface=DIR=/?
It seems I can choose from:
| Code: | # find / -name wpa_supplicant
/home/philip/.config/wpa_supplicant
/etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant
/etc/conf.d/wpa_supplicant
/etc/wpa_supplicant
/usr/portage/net-wireless/wpa_supplicant
/usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant |

phil ... that is incorrect, the '-D<driver>' is '-Dnl80211'. Also, there is no need to pass '-iwlp3s0' or -'c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf' as these is passed by netifrc/openrc as a parameters/defaults.
Please can you correct the formating on the above ... it makes difficult to read (use codeblocks rather than lists as the lines don't seem to be wrapped with the latter).

Thanks kayyam,
Now I tried the configuration of /etc/conf.d/net, like you suggest
# cat /etc/conf.d/net
| Code: | # --- Wired ethernet ---
config_enp0s25="dhcp 192.168.1.250/24"
# config_eth0="dhcp" ?
# --- Wireless WiFi ---
#Prefer wpa_supplicant over wireless-tools
modules_wlp3s0="wpa_supplicant"
# It is important that we tell wpa_supplicant which driver we should
# be using as it is not very good at guessing that
wpa_supplicant_wlp3s0="-Dnl80211"
config_wlp3s0="dhcp" |
I have changed the wpa_supplicant.conf to handle a WPA2 encrypted connection
# cat /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
| Code: | # Allow users in the 'wheel' group tp control wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
#Let wpa_supplicant take care of scanning and AP selection
#ap_scan=1
# Allow user-made changes to be saved (e.g. add network)
#update_config=1
# A simple case: WPA-PSK, PSK, as an ASCII passphrase, allow all valid ciphers
network={
ssid="[i]my_AP_SSID[/i]"
psk="[i]the_passphrase_of_the_AP[/i]"
scan_ssid=1
proto=WPA2
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
group=CCMP TKIP
pairwise_CCMP TKIP
# The higher the priority the sooner we are matched
priority=5
} |
I still get
# iwconfig
| Code: | enp0s25 no wireless extensions.
wlp3s0 IEEE 802.11abgn ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=0 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
enp0s20u4 no wireless extensions.
lo no wireless extensions.
sit0 no wireless extensions. |
In my previous setting I got my firmware driver from
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi
My HW is
| Code: | | Intel® Wireless 7260 |
where the firmware driver should be (since I am on kernel version 3.12.13)
| Code: | | iwlwifi-7260-ucode-22.1.7.0 |
I have placed it in /lib/firmware as intructed at the website
# ls /lib/firmware/
| Code: | | intel iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode iwlwifi-7260-8.ucode |
Are you sure that nl80211 is the right driver and that it works with Intel® Wireless 7260 ?
Should I maybe configure in /etc/conf.d/net:
| Code: | | wpa_supplicant_wlp3s0="-Diwlwifi-7260-7.ucode" |
?

When I configure /etc/conf.d/net with
| Code: | | wpa_supplicant_wlp3s0="-Diwlwifi-7260-7.ucode" |
this is what dmesg says:
# dmesg | grep iwlwifi

[ 58.698541] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: L1 Enabled; Disabling L0S |
When I configure /etc/conf.d/net with
| Code: | | wpa_supplicant_wlp3s0="-Dnl80211" |
dmesg says:
# dmesg | grep iwlwifi
| Code: | [ 8.019681] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: loaded firmware version 22.1.7.0 op_mode iwlmvm

and
# dmesg | grep 80211
| Code: | | [ 8.231527] ieee80211 phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'iwl-mvm-rs' |
It seems like both | Code: | | wpa_supplicant_wlp3s0="-Diwlwifi-7260-7.ucode" |
and | Code: | | wpa_supplicant_wlp3s0="-Dnl80211" |
works.....

phil ... you're welcome. That should be config_enp0s25="dhcp".

Yes, I'm absolutely certain that -Dnl80211 is the correct driver, this is the wpa_supplicant "driver", not the wireless driver (and certainly not the firmware).
As for the output above you're not associated with an AP, but the card is recongised and seems to be working. If you are unable to assocate with the AP ('wpa_cli staus' should show the state) then change the following and pastebin the wpa_supplicant.log
/etc/conf.d/net
| Code: | | wpa_supplicant_wlp2s0="-Dnl80211 -d -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log" |
Again, this thread is very difficult for me to read, as the above formating means I have to scroll right then left to read whats written, can you please go back and edit your post(s) and correct the formating making sure that any text copy-pasted doesn't have extranious whitespace.

Yes I think we can conclude that the card is recognized and works. The evidence, I believe is that a scan returns information about the AP:
# iwlist wlp3s0 scan
| Code: | wlp3s0 Scan completed :

IE: Unknown: 7F03010008 |
I have definitively put
| Code: | | wpa_supplicant_wlp3s0="-Dnl80211" |
in /etc/conf.d/net
which gives at system boot:
# dmesg | grep iwlwifi
| Code: | [ 7.990426] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: loaded firmware version 22.1.7.0 op_mode iwlmvm
[ 7.990440] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Detected Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless AC 7260, REV=0x144
[ 7.991065] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: L1 Enabled; Disabling L0S

[ 54.827597] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: L1 Enabled; Disabling L0S |
So this works fine now I believe,
wpa_cli status gives:
# wpa_cli status
| Code: | | Failed to connect to non-global ctrl_ifname: (null) error: No such file or directory |
Maybe something is not right here?
(I will return soon with /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log)
(Btw: The configuration
| Code: | | config_enp0s25="dhcp 192.168.1.250/24" |
in /etc/conf.d/net is on purpose, where I have an alias address 192.168.1.250/24 on this interface for a project I am working on )

For some reason the /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log file will not be created.
Steps I made:
1)
re-merge wpa_supplicant with the use flag debug set
| Code: | | # USE="debug" emerge --ask wpa_supplicant |
2)
Change in /etc/conf.d/net to this:
| Code: | | wpa_supplicant_wlp3s0="-Dnl80211 -d -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log" |
3) reboot
No wpa_supplicant.log file :
| Code: | # find / -name wpa_supplicant.log
phils_x1 philip # |
or
| Code: | # ls /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log
ls: cannot access /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log: No such file or directory |
Maybe wpa_supplicant does not start properly?
Also, should there not be a net.wlp3s0 entry in /etc/init.d/?
# ls -al /etc/init.d/ | grep net*
| Code: | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 May 1 20:24 net.enp0s25 -> net.lo
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17412 Apr 10 07:03 net.lo
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1583 Apr 10 07:03 netmount
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 411 May 15 20:41 saned |

phil ... yes, because the service isn't started (see bellow).

Yes, in fact, you are supposed to create this symlink ...
| Code: | # ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.wlp3s0
# /etc/init.d/net.wlp2s0 start |

If I do
| Code: | | ln -s /etc/init.d/net.lo /etc/init.d/net.wlp3s0 |
will I get a conflict with net.enp0s25 which also has a symbolic link to net.lo?
# ls -al /etc/init.d/ | grep net*
| Code: | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 May 1 20:24 net.enp0s25 -> net.lo
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17412 Apr 10 07:03 net.lo |

I have got it working !
Starting the service and adding it to the default runlevel was the last piece of the puzzle.
# rc-status
| Code: | Runlevel: default
dbus [ started ]
syslog-ng [ started ]
net.enp0s25 [ started ]
net.wlp3s0 [ started ] |
and
# ping www.google.com
| Code: | PING www.google.com (173.194.32.16) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from arn06s01-in-f16.1e100.net (173.194.32.16): icmp_seq=1 ttl=54 time=8.85 ms
64 bytes from arn06s01-in-f16.1e100.net (173.194.32.16): icmp_seq=2 ttl=54 time=8.96 ms
^C
--- www.google.com ping statistics ---
2 packets transmitted, 2 received, 0% packet loss, time 1001ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 8.850/8.907/8.964/0.057 ms |
Thank you all for excellent help![/code]

philip ... you're welcome. You should now edit the first post and add [SOLVED] to the subject line.
Something I noticed in the above, you are starting both net.wlp2s0 and net.enp0s25 ... unless these are on seperate subnets (unlikely) then there isn't really a reason to have both started. You might want to have net.enp0s25 managed by sys-apps/ifplugd (which will bring the interface up/down when a cable is detected). There are various methods of handling switching between wired and wireless networks, and examples of how to use ifplugd, or netplug, to manage the switch. You can search the wiki and the forum for examples.

Yes khayyam, I need to have net.enp0s25 managed by sys-apps/ifplugd. This will be the next challange to configure.
Thanks!
