I have a OURLINK wifi adapter
I can see the wifi, and it has a inet6 address, but not an ip address.
I can't figure out why not?
I am using a wpa_supplicant.conf file which I know works (because it is the
same file that works on my raspberry pi.
Can someone who knows what my problem is, tell me what I need to do?
lsusb output is:
us 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:8176 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188CUS
802.11n WLAN Adapter
ifconfig looks like this:

My interfaces file looks like this:

# ... or on host side, usbnet and random hwaddr
# Note on some boards, usb0 is automaticly setup with an init script
