It is happening 3 nightly build ago. The box I am testing is a Magicsee N5 Max, I just connect with wired network, I am happy, but I wonder why I cannot connect by wireless network,now it seems it has been disabled…
One more thing, will it be possible get activated the vdf front display of the box ??
Ok thank you, I sorry not to look for this, I read about it somewhere, openvfd, and now it comes again with your good explanation.
On the other side, the wifi issue, how to get the wifi adapter is on my tvbox Magicsee N5 Max? I am looking for the command to find which it is… then if we know which is the wifi adapter, you will know if is possible to get it working, I had it working on previous nightly, I think is not a priority the wifi issue, I just want to introduce the problematic, just this…
I’m pretty sure that wifi should be working fine on the N5 Max.
Edit: After checking, it looks we have not added anything specific for the N5 Max, so I’m moving this into a new separate thread to see if it can be fixed.
It looks like your box uses a clone of the AP6255 chip, which has been supported since July. Are you sure you didn’t disable Wireless in CoreELEC settings?
When “Wireless” is disabled, you won’t see the interface in ifconfig.
maybe my wifi chip is broken?? the box is new, it hasnt been almost used …
pd: I enable bluetooth and it appears as disabled. I had the wifi working 3-4 nightly build ago, sure… but now it doesn’t appear nor android 8.1, so my wifi/bt chip has been damaged??
I dont know if the thread is dead because the problem doesnt exist, I mean, I am reporting a wifi problem when nobody has this wifi problem. The issue is that I was connected on wifi mode during some days up to one nightly update some weeks ago it results on a wifi and bluetooth modules lost. I dont know if is only my box or it has happened on general to this adapter on this box or all boxes with this adapter. Nobody ask me to put on command line the order to get which is the adapter on my box, or how to do some ask to my hardware to see if it is right or not, damaged… I would like to do this with someone helpness.
hi mates, I have realised through coreelec team and other mates with the n5 max box that my WIFI/BT module is damaged, nothing to do. I hope the rest of the machine will survive for a long time… thanks to all, the thread can be closed.
It works fine in Android but to be honest the box is going back. I tried playing videos in CE and it was all over the shop. Maybe with a lot of work it could be passable. Just haven’t got the time to invest in mucking about with it.
To be honest I’m going to try and downgrade my two S905X boxes to CE 9.22 as I think they were better before the recent update, less glitchy. If they are still bad I might even go back to my MXQ’s. Just not wasting my time when I could just watch a DVD or pay for netflix.
