The text file is a REALLY good idea. I'm going to start one of my own !
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of William Hermans Sent: Thursday, December 26, 2013 6:50 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [beagleboard] Wifi Adapter Recommendations Robert Nelson has a post on these forums somewhere where he recommends two 802.11N USB devices that were around $10 each. I want to say they're Atheros, but I dont remember but hold on . . . For a "mere" 2-3 more $'s you can get a WiFi dongle that'll work out of the box without custom non-mainline drivers that do not always work. Atheros (atk9) based modules on amazon... tl-wn721n tl-wn722n Just search "wifi" in this group, for all the problems with those 'tiny' wifi adapters... Regards, I happen to keep important information to me ( from this group )in a text file so . . . the above in italics was from the post I spoke of.

I have rtl8188cus and mt7601 and I can not get either to work. At this point I would rather just order one that works rather than waste more time trying to fight with either of these two. I have building the kernel working and have tried several times to build a new driver for both of these adapters but the mt7601 will not show up with iwconfig and the rtl8188cus will show up see my access point but will not connect to it. I am editing /etc/network/interfaces to try and get connected to our WEP "protected" network. I have no control over the type of encryption used. I was able to get everything working on Angstrom with connman so I know it is possible. Sorry if this became a little bit of a rant but I have spent a lot of time trying everything I could google up and now I just want to throw money at the problem. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
