In Topic: Wifi Drivers DM7020HD

Once I had updated the package list I rebooted and tried straight from there so I guess it must have been the external default rtl8192cu.

I based my original post on a couple of others on this forum asking about the same - maybe pre 3.0, I've learnt today about opkg update, but I wouldnt be surprised if there are a number of users who have swapped to other images, unaware of this.

Just wonder whether the updated packages could be included in future builds?

I didnt originally run opkg update, you are talking to a novice I'm afraid. Have now done so and can see a lot of realtek drivers in there.

Ok after a reboot success! Connected by wifi and one very happy PLi user again.

Thank you very much for your time and advice.

Same result with last nightly build of 3.0:- OpenPLi-3.0-beta-dm7020hd-20120803.nfi

root@dm7020hd:~# opkg remove rtl8192cu
Removing package rtl8192cu from root...
root@dm7020hd:~# opkg install kernel-module-rtl8192cu
Unknown package 'kernel-module-rtl8192cu'.
Collected errors:
* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package kernel-module-rtl8192cu.

Search shows:

root@dm7020hd:~# opkg list *8192*
firmware-rtl8192cu - 1.0-r0

Does that indicate that the drivers are not in the image?

I'm pretty sure the name is right, have googled it and can find reference to it but unfortunatley havent found a download for it.

The search gave this:

root@dm7020hd:~# opkg list *8192*
firmware-rtl8192cu - 1.0-r0
root@dm7020hd:~#
