no Wireless

[Bram]

Hi guys I am setting up my new B3 server but I cant get the wireless up and running.
the http://b3/admin/network/wlan page states

"These settings are locked .
Either no wireless network card is available or no valid timezone is set."
every thing else is blanked out.

The time zone is set properly (utc) with the wizard when i started.
I have two antennas and wlan0 seems to be just fine.
I wonder what is going on.

Hi Bram,

Try setting your timezone to something other than UTC.
I had the same issue until I set it to Europe/Stockholm in the web interface (Settings/Time and language tab)

Best regards,

Are you trying to connect a pistol to your Bubba?

now *that* would be a cool hack! Output resolution won't be great though.

Yes, really cool! And in combination with a camera and some face recognition software, just imagine what could be done!

It does bring home security to a whole new level.

Once forum member zmannen wrote an article in Elektronik i Norden, where he used the original Bubba, a web cam and a foam missile launcher (http://www.thinkgeek.com/interests/giftsunder50/8a0f/) to do exactly that.
Unfortunately the article doesn't seem to be on the web, but he refers to it here:

But I don't think the SIG SAUER has a USB connection, so it will require a bit more work
