hi, 

I don't know if it is the correct part of the forum.

I have a wifi adapter TL-WN823n WITH CHIPSET RTL8192 and I need to use it with my vu+zero with Openpli 4.

I tried to find some driver in this forum but I don't find nothing who work properly. could you help me?

thanks

OpenPLi 4 has been end of life for more than a year, even OpenPLi 6.2 goes end of life soon. 

 

That stick uses the rtl8192eu chipset, the upcoming OpenPLi 7.0 wil have a driver for it.

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

I would wait until OpenPLi 7.0 is released, it is currently in release-candidate.

 

We don't have a habbit of releasing images that don't work. ;) I've been using my Zero with the current 7.0-rc without any problems. If you use the autobackup plugin and make a backup to a USB stick, you can restore the backup after you have flashed a new version.

 

We can't provide drivers for end-of-live versions, they need to be compiled from source, and the RealTek rtl8192eu is an out-of-tree driver (i.e. not natively supported by Linux), adding these to our build process is very complex work.
