Networking and servers • Run AP and Wifi simultaneously using NMCLI

Hi all!

Somehow I had it working on a previous setup running Bullseye on my RPi 4, where I was using a mix of hostapd, dnsmas and dhcp to create an AP connection.

I need to use this connection to be able to connect to the RPi device and configure a normal Wifi connection. Hence I don't need an ethernet to set my Pi an internet connection.

Unfortunately though, now that I have updated to Bookwarm, things changed. My previous hostapd based AP setup was losing connection when setting up wpa_supplicant on the same AP network.

I switch to set things up using NMCLI now, but same result. Things work, but when I do a nmcli dev wifi connect, while on the AP connection, the connection hangs. Both networks (AP and Wifi) cannot work simultaneously.

The weird thing is that I used to have this working quite fine on Bullseye!

Someone managed to find a way?
