Unable to scan for wireless access points

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: WL1271

Hi,

I'm trying to bring up a Murata WL1271 module on a custom beagleboard platform. I've verified that the hardware is working correctly with the 2.7.37-rc6 mainline wl1271 drivers.

I need to work with android-2.2.1 and so i need to get the WiLink 6.1 drivers working. I've built it and brought the tiwlan0 interface up. However, I am unable to scan for an get a list of available access points.

Hi Elvis ,

can you please share the tiwlan.ini file content that you are using? i am specifically interested in the value of the STRFRefClock parameter.

also you may refer to our WiKi page in link: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/ARM_Processor_Wireless_Connectivity_Hardware_specifications section "Typical SW modification needed when using a different HW"

Regards,

Eyal

Hi,

STRFRefClock value was set to 2. On our customboard, our TXCO ref clock is set to 26MHz, so I guess this means that I have to set it to 1.

Hi,

After modifying the tiwlan.ini file to set STRFRefClock=1, corresponding to a 26MHz TXCO, it works. I'm able to scan and associate with an unsecured access point.
