Hardware

Greetings from new user ,
My test pc has onboard wlan which works as WLanAP , but its slow .

I found ID 2357:0108 TP-Link TL-WN822N Version 4 RTL8192EU
adapter and I’m having trouble to get it working as WLanAP .
Not listed as working or tested in wiki.ipfire.org - Network Adapter Hardware Compatibility List

The adapter works in other linux systems with rtl8xxxu kernel module .

[root@ipfire rtl8xxxu]# modinfo rtl8xxxu.ko.xz
filename: /lib/modules/5.15.6-ipfire/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtl8xxxu/rtl8xxxu.ko.xz
firmware: rtlwifi/rtl8723bu_bt.bin
firmware: rtlwifi/rtl8723bu_nic.bin
firmware: rtlwifi/rtl8192eu_nic.bin
…

Handshake completes and port is authorised but kernel drops IN/OUT,
IEEE 802.1X: authorizing port
WPA: pairwise key handshake completed (RSN)
ipfire kernel: DROP_INPUT IN=wlan0 OUT= MAC=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx SRC=0.0.0.0 DST=255.255.255.255 LEN=325 TOS=0x00 PREC=0xC0 TTL=64 ID=0 DF PROTO=UDP SPT=68 DPT=67 LEN=305

Any clues why the connection is blocked ?

This is a dhcp request. Is dhcp enabled? If not it is normal that IPFire blocks the request because it not use the correct IP’s for the network.
