VirtualBench - WiFi problems

Hi,

 

I have a VirtualBench 8012 with FW 18.0.0f0 where I can't setup the WiFi correctly. 

 

If I create an open or WPA2-protected WiFi AP then I can see the WiFi but I can't connect to it. Under iOS v15.5 I get the message "Connection failed" and under Android v10 it doesn't connect without an error message.

 

If I try to connect it with my local WiFi router I get the message "Invalid Security type":

If I try to connect it with the AP of my iPhone I get the message "Network configuration can't be requested".

Does anyone know of these problems and possible solutions to them?

 

Thx Stefan

Now I found the problem why I can't connect to my router.


I have a Fritz!Box from AVM and the WLAN security was configured as WPA2+WPA3. With these settings I cannot connect the VirtualBench to my WiFi network. After changing the security settings to WPA+WPA2, I was able to connect the VirtualBench in a few seconds.


I think the WiFi stack on the VirtualBench is not up to date to handle WPA3 WiFis.


I hope this helps others with this problem too.
