You have the name of the kernel driver wrong:

opkg install kernel-module-8188eu

so without the "r".

Hello friends, finally, with your instructions, the problem of connecting via wireless Internet was solved by executing Telnet commands

As a matter of duty, I would like to sincerely thank my good friends dear s3n0, Neo and WanWizard for their help and guidance.

Why do you issue all sorts of commands, except the command I've given you?

I give up, dlink dwa-121 not work

[neo]

Why don't you just type in what you're asked? You still haven't installed the driver...

root@purehd:/lib/modules/4.2.1# opkg list-installed | grep "8188"
firmware-rtl8188eu - 1.1+git296+4b2b151-r0.5
kernel-module-r8188eu-4.2.1 - 4.2.1-r0.9

I think i installed but dongle dlink dwa-121 still not working on box

F*ck ! Sorry.

 

Just checked the code in detail.

 

The purehd runs a 4.2.1 kernel, which comes with a built-in driver for the 8188eu, but the linux kernel drive does not support the dwa-121 rev-b until kernel 5.16. Our out of tree driver for older kernels also supports it (I did check that code), but it turns our that isn't build for the purehd .

 

So, we either have to patch the kernel, or figure out how to override an in-tree driver with a custom driver.

 

Might take a while, holiday is coming up soon...

ok, thx

[jaro44]

I build and install patched kernel-module-r8188eu-4.2.1 for pure hd, and dwa121 work fine

Big thx #PLi® Contributor for getting to the problem.

You can may be zip and attached your own builded working version so that someone else with the same problem can benefits from your work too.

It's probably better to post how you patched and built it, as we will probably have to apply that patch too.

Ah, ok, that would indeed be the quickest way .
