Cannot set static IP

[JPluess]

I have successfully connected to my wife, but setting a static IP fails.

I tried to save like so:

Why does it say adapter lo above? Isn’t it wlan0? Like so:

I use an OrangePI Lite2 H6

thanks, ;)

Thanks for reporting an issue. We will look into it when possible.

Perhaps you used some other tool to connect or its simply a bug that doesn't count that? Support terms in general https://github.com/armbian/build#support

Tried the same with OrangePi Zero. It automatically selects eth0 for me when selecting "static" while being connected to both WiFi and ethernet. So maybe there is an issue with interface selection?

I re-burned this image: Armbian_20.05.2_Orangepilite2_buster_current_5.4.43.img with Rufus

Right after booting and setting up my account, I only used armbian-config tool to make my settings

1. changed time zone, Zurich
2. change locales de_CH.UTF-8 and set as default
3. changed keyboard to CH
4. changed mirror to Denmark
5. connected to my WIFI

6a. Failed to change IP settings.
6b. After reboot issue persists.

7. I did an update / upgrade command:
   

8. after a reboot I tried again to set IP, with no success

Failed to change IP settings.

Yes, we register it as a bug.

armbian-config is a wrapper for other low level apps .... try using:

  nmtui-edit

for setting fixed IP.

Confirmed this does not work on the latest version of Buster. /etc/network/interfaces is ignored. The only way I was able to set a static IP on either WiFi or Ethernet was to remove network-manager and its libraries, install dhcpcd5 and edit /etc/ /etc/dhcpcd.conf. For wireless, I also had to create /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf.
