Looking for users with no working WiFi or BT

On your router you have to forward the port 22 to your box or just make a DMZ to it.

Thanks.

So when it comes to specifying internal and external start and end points, do I enter 22 in all 4 fields and what protocol should I use (TCP, UDP or TCP/UDP)?

The only DMZ I am familiar with is the one in Korea.

google port forwarding for your particular network router. It should only need TCP, but it won’t hurt anything to choose TCP/UDP.

@Vermillion if possible I would like to fix it but I do not want to waste hours of my time sending commands via PM and waiting for a response before issuing the next command, I’m not interested in your data.

@Compent yes that is exactly all you need to do, enter the IP for the box and internal/external both 22 TCP and then send me a PM with your IP and SSH password if you have changed it.

All done and yours when you want it.

I downgrade to 9.2.1 and everything is working, but if you need I update again and give remote access…my guess it’s related to the “update rtl8723bs drivers”

Hi @anon88919003 the result of the command to know the description of my bluetooth device is as follows:
L: 0
E: DEVPATH=/devices/d0070000.sdio/mmc_host/sdio/sdio:0001/sdio:0001:1
E: DRIVER=rtl8723bs
E: SDIO_CLASS=07
E: SDIO_ID=024C:B723

I have seen that there are problems in the new choreelec 9.2.2 with this driver, but as I told you before it worked fine. what is the next step? I am waiting for your instructions and thanks for your help.

Try the nightly because it has the old driver included.

I put the version nightly_20200430 amlogic.arm inside the update folder, I’ve updated but it still doesn’t recognize the bluetooth, although now it recognizes the channel for the updates.
Any further instructions? thanks for your attention

Type rfkill list on SSH on the nightly and paste the output.

Did you find any clues as to why the bluetooth isn’t working on mt7668?

What are the steps that need to be performed to get a driver working?

Step 1 would be to compile to the correct driver.
Step 2 compile dtb.

Is there anything else?

Nope, I spent a few days trying to get it work, I can get the driver compiled and loaded, I can even see the BT mac address but the interface does not show in hcitool or rfkill.

I think there is something missing in the driver to allocate and register the HCI as it is designed for Android.

Best option for now is to get a cheap USB bluetooth adaptor like this if you need BT.

Thank you for trying. That Bluetooth dongle is a very good idea!!! I actually have one of those somewhere among my DIY or raspberry pi things.

The wifi works which is the main thing!

To get external bluetooth to work would i need to somehow disable the internal bluetooth. As i have tried three dongles and none have been detected. I understand it could be incompatable dongles but i wanted to check defore i looked for more.

my internal bluetooth is = rtl8723bs
