You are correct about Ubuntu - wouldn't connect at first till I found an existing issue with the drivers, followed instructions to replace with updated drivers - then connected straight away but with the speed issue. Unfortunately I gave no other wifi dongles to compare - have had 2 others with Rpi-B/picoerplayer but they have gone to friends. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ChrisMmm's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34600 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
