I posted this message last night the only way I could find it was to search by my id. It shows
it went to Beagleboard but if you go look without doing a search it is not there. I can only find
and see it if I do a search So I repeat the text here. Sorry for the Repeat.

I received my BB Black Wireless yesterday and I do not see any doc on how to set up
wireless for my home network.
USB 192.168.7.2 network works and Cloud9 there gets a terminal.

I tried my usual editing of /etc/network/interfaces with my said and psk for wlan0 but it did not connect.

I found a thread on Beagelbone Black section with something to try

nah use connman, i have it installed by default on jessie images. ;) 


~$ sudo connmanctl 

connmanctl> enable wifi 

Enabled wifi 


connmanctl> scan wifi 

Scan completed for wifi 


connmanctl> services 

*AO Wired                ethernet_74d435b65be6_cable 

    Avenger              wifi_14cc201db6f6_4176656e676572_managed_psk 


connmanctl> agent on 

Agent registered 


connmanctl> connect wifi_14cc201db6f6_4176656e676572_managed_psk 

Agent RequestInput wifi_14cc201db6f6_4176656e676572_managed_psk 

  Passphrase = [ Type=psk, Requirement=mandatory ] 


Passphrase? wine n dine 

Connected wifi_14cc201db6f6_4176656e676572_managed_psk 


connmanctl> quit 


check: 


sudo ifconfig -a

However it did not work as scan wifi just returned and did not say scan completed
tried command services anyway and it just returned
entered help and saw a tether command with wifi said and psk entry and trie it with
my network said and ask and now the Access point network of the Beaglebone Black
wireless has the name of my home network. Just as a test I did it again and changed the
name to something else and that became the name so obviously that is not the way.

What is the planned method.

Thank's
Tom

That is because you were still moderated on your posts.

Now it is here.

Thanks
 If I had not found the message I would have figured the message had not been approved yet.
We can delete this repeat message and just keep the original. I will wait on that for now.

Do all moderated messages go here, I want it to go to the Beagleboard Black Wireless section.
As far as I know I was in that section and the drip down dialog said Black Wireless so I assumed I
was posting to that section

I'm not sure how the interface puts them by default. I added the original to that category.
