Still Fresh
I've had my Pandora for a week or two now (yaayy!) and I'm having some problems with wifi. With the pre-installed firmware image I could see and connect to wireless networks, so I hope it's not hardware related (fingers crossed). I reflashed my pandy using the image that includes Hotfix 3, and since then I've installed Hotfix4-beta3 and Hotfix4-final. Now my wifi network doesn't work at all.
I ran the Toggle WiFi script a few times and made sure that the wl1251 kernel module is loaded. Running "ifconfig -a" only shows the "lo" local loopback device. There's no wlan0 and I can't bring it up. I have tried reflashing and I've also booted with root on an SD card using the instructions here. I hope my wireless hardware's not fried... Bluetooth still seems to work though, aren't they on the same chip?
Thanks,
Josh
