Using the openvario shell program for connecting my mobile via wlan with my openvario everything work fine until I send my pin code from the mobile to the openvario. After sending the code the mobile wasn't seenable for the OV and also the menu point WLAN disappeared in the Openvario shell program.

Hm, I don't quite understand the problem. Especially about sending the "pin code" part.

What kind of pin code did you send and why? Do you mean the wifi password? If it was wifi password, how did it work fine before you've sent it?

Hm, this is weird. Did you try pressing the refresh button after that failed attempt to set the password? Did you see any error messages at the bottom of the OV screen? Does the tethered wifi network appear again if you go back from connection app and start it again?

The wifi connection app is probably the most complex thing in openvario-shell, I expect it to still have some bugs. If we will figure this out, we can make it more robust.

Btw, did you ever try to connect to wifi from command line with connmanctl? I wonder how that would work in your case.

Should I try to connect the mobile with the "normal" procedure via exit to shell?

Yes, try this: exit to shell, and then start connmanctl. There type these commands:

> scan wifi
... wait a bit ...
> services

If you see your mobile hotspot in the list, type:

> agent on
> connect wifi_...

You can press tab to autocomplete the last command.

Then exit the connmanctl and try to run

ping 8.8.8.8

If pings return, you are online. If you can get this far, it probably means there's some bug in the ovshell. We can try to figure it out, but first I'd like to make sure the basics work.

@Indiasieben I don't see any pictures. You are replying to a github email and github converts them into comments to the github issue. You can upload the image via the github or send me personally to [email protected].

It looks like if the ov is storing something like an address of the keyboard and doesn't accept the the remote stick anymore. Strange!

I'm not sure how the remote stick issue can be related to wifi - I suspect it is not related. What did you try to fix this issue? Did you try to watch logs and see what is printed out when you insert the stick into usb slot? Try journalctl -f in the console.
