I'm using a noname USB WiFi dongle labeled RTL8188 on a beaglebone black.

I tried removing avahi-daemon and wpa-supplement and after
a reboot I can now do:

iwconfig wlan0 essid <WIFISSID>

and get:

[  153.579456] wlan0: authenticate with 00:25:9c:4d:25:8e
[  153.619702] wlan0: send auth to 00:25:9c:4d:25:8e (try 1/3)
[  153.623978] wlan0: authenticated
[  153.627925] wlan0: associate with 00:25:9c:4d:25:8e (try 1/3)

[  153.688098] wlan0: associated
[  153.688673] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready

iwconfig:

wlan0     IEEE 802.11bgn  ESSID:"R0x0r1337"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.412 GHz  Access Point:

But ifconfig shows that there is no inet4 address: ??

          RX bytes:142070 (142.0 KB)  TX bytes:11306 (11.3 KB)


I'll try compileing this driver

If you're not a socialist when you're young, it's because you have no heart.
If you stop being a socialist when you get older, it's because you lack
intellect and imagination.
