In Topic: Wifi dongle is not recognized

17 June 2020 - 14:47

I don't know, I personally stay away from any wireless if possible.

A cable is a lot more stable, and for most applications 100Mbps is more than fast enough.

Don't forget wifi is a shared medium.

If your kids iphone in the bedroom makes a connection to the same AP, your box can report 400Mbps but still only have 1Mbps throughput because the iPhone connection limits the speed of the AP.

Okay, I think I'll keep using the cable then. Thank you very much again, greetings

Was afraid so, the hardware has specific driver requirements that are not supported by this driver.

There is newer source, but integrating out-of-tree drivers into 40 or so different linux kernel versions (we need to support 3.2 to 5.5) is a big pain and lots of work.

So don't expect anything soon, or at all...

Still, thank you very much, you are very kind. I will return the dongle, do you know which one I could buy which supports 5ghz wifi and is compatible? At the moment I have it connected by cable but the ethernet port is only 100mbps, I suppose that with the 5ghz wifi it would go faster. I'm wrong?

Can you remove the installed driver

opkg remove kernel-module-8812au

and install the attached one instead? And restart your box after you've done so?

 

Yes, I have unistalled the above module using: 

opkg remove kernel-module-8812au*

After I have restarted and trying to install the attachment an error appears: 

root@h5:/var/volatile/tmp# opkg install kernel-module-8812au-4.10.12_4.3.14-r0.0
_h5.ipk

Please stop formatting your posts, those large letters are very annoying !

Device 2357:0120 is currently not supported by the driver, the device is newer than the driver is.

Sorry, I was using the translator and it causes me typographical errors. Is there no way to get it working? If so I will return the adapter.

Did you restart the box after installing the driver?

 

Can you post the output of

lsmod
lsusb

 

 

Yes, I have installed the module "kernel-module-8812au" and restarted it. The output is:
