FAQ

It says it could not find ethernet in connman devices.

You need to install connman plugin for ethernet.
opkg install connman-plugin-ethernet

It says it could not find wifi in connman devices.

Version 0.2

You need to power on the wireless device in the phone.
In SHR it can be easily done from settings→connectivity.

Version 0.3 and above

Should no longer happen, report a bug if it does.

It still does not find the wireless device even though its on.

Version 0.2

killall connmand && connmand

Version 0.3 and above

Should no longer happen, report a bug if it does.

Where do i enter the password for the wifi network?

The password is below the authentication type button,
And its just a text label with the default value “Password”.
It should have a frame some time in the future to mark it a textbox.

I click apply, it writes some message, but no controls and its stuck

Version 0.2

This can happen when the connection fails or just waits forever,
currently just close the application, and start it again.
In the near future there will be a timeout: see ticket #4

Version 0.3 and above

Should no longer happen, report a bug if it does.

I left the password field empty, now i can no longer edit it

First of all, do not click apply when the password field is empty.
If you did not click apply, you can click discard, and enter the wifi menu again to see the password that was before.
If you did click apply the empty password is now saved, you can still modify it from the config file.
Edit /usr/share/mokonnect/mkconfig.py.
The configuration is saved as a python dictionary, and should be quite clear to understand.
in devices_config dictionary, find the key “Wifi” that points to another dictionary, and there change “pass” key to whatever value you want.
Save the file and load mokonnect again.
A more elegant solution will follow: see ticket #5

I can no longer SSH into my device when i connect it to my computer

The issue is caused by connman now controlling the ethernet device.
It tries to get an IP on the USB Network interface using DHCP, instead of the constant address it had before.
Once connman supports static ethernet configuration, this can be solved from inside mokonnect.
For now, use the following command in the terminal to set the device’s ip:
ifconfig usb0 192.168.0.202

I connected to the network i want, with ip and everything but i cant ping nor surf.

Verify that the default route is set correctly, connman 0.19 has sometimes problems with that.
route -n
if there is no default route, set it using the command:
route add default gw <ip_address_of_your_gateway>
This issue should be fixed upstream in connman.
