and now
Code:
ifconfig wlan0 inet 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.0
will the address be set on wlan0 (shown in ifconfig)?
nono please not this firmware. I meant WIFI firmware. but if wlan0 is listed, this will be ok. if you succeed with assigning IP manually, then we will just modify interfaces file and you go. Beta1X has older Debian install, Beta2 newer - and Debian had/has some bugs around and from release to release the effect around combinations of auto if, manual/static/dhcp is different.
(if you use rpi-update on XBIAN, you will break the install most probably. XBIAN updates firmware through xbian-package-firmware deb package)

ok, NO updating from that link... you caught me just in time, just installed git-core... hehe...
heres what i got with that command you posted here,
Quote:root@xbian:~# ifconfig wlan0 inet 192.168.10.1 255.255.255.0
SIOCSIFADDR: Invalid argument
ok, when i mentioned before i could connect with static settings on my phone i had forgot that i also commented out "wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf" from within the interfaces file... i reinstalled xbian again and it wouldn't let me connect again even with static settings... so i commented that out and static connects again, but my phone cannot get internet (not important) also can't control XBMC with remote app via the phone... i've tried changing ip in the phone app to 192.168.10.1 and 192.168.2.215 (eth0 addy on Pi) with no success either way...
ok, i think i got it... this is what i have in the interfaces file:
Quote:auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface default inet dhcp
auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.10.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
up iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.ipv4.nat
dhcp server was looking for a static setting in the "iface wlan0 inet static"
and removed the wpa line...
and this is my ifconfig:

its showing ip addys for wlan0 now...
i've rebooted it a couple times, i have internet on phone while wifi connected to RPi... DHCP is also working... can control XBMC from phone app with both ip addys, eth0-192.168.2.215 and wlan0-192.168.10.1...
thanx again mk01, i reinstalled XBian 3 times and tried it each time... it works great...

It is a feature of OpenELEC.
Oh really...? It's to bad that OpenELEC is not for customization though... :/

It is horribly locked down, just letting you know the feature exists.
Oh it's definitely Kool to know, I'll keep that in mind... But being so locked down, it takes all the fun out of having AP feature...
Thanx for the info...
this don't work on beta2... hostapd and dhcp server doesn't install...

I'm certain mk01 is on beta2, what is the specific errors you receive?
i can't get the error to come back up... having to many other problems now... beta 1.1 is also giving me problems now... XBMC just notified me that an add-on "Universal Album Scraper" is marked as broken in the repository...
will post back when i have more info... :/

Ignore that error.
looks like it was a SDcard failure... will try again tomorrow...
