Linux/WL1831MOD: Enable the WIFI WPS in LInux on WL1831wifi module

Hi Saurabh,

Still now, we are try in that GUI only.
But, We don't get any response.
So, through command we are try for wps.

I got the error while trying this command on command line interface(CLI)

root@sabresd_6dq:/ # hostapd_cli wps_pbc
Failed to connect to hostapd - wpa_ctrl_open: No such file or directory


How to solve this.?

Hi Saurabh,

This one used wpa_cli command for waiting server.

But, in my case hostapd_cli command wait for client.

I saw that user information when i try "hostapd_cli -?".

Means when i try "wps_pbc" command

I have the doubt, i was set like that in "hostapd.conf" file.

ctrl_interface = /var/run/hostapd

How to solve this.?

These are under README-WPS file.

Hi,

I was used these command.

1. hostapd_cli

2. hostapd_cli wps_pbc

3. hostapd_cli wps_pin

These are the commands for making AP(WPS server).

VinothS.
