wifi: Realtek RTL8188EU (RTL8188ETV)?

Postby den_hr » 22 Mar 2015, 15:09

Anyone had any success getting these cheap nano WiFi USB devices to work?
I got several types, most interesting is the one with external antenna (see attached picture) - can be had cheap on ebay:

lsusb gives me just
Code: Select all
[root@runeaudio ~]# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 009: ID 0bda:0179 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188ETV Wireless LAN 802.11n Network Adapter

So, I would probably need to compile a driver for this one.
But, on other forums it is claimed that the RTL8188EU driver should work just the same....

So, has anyone managed to get this working on RuneAudio?
Any pointers (or detailed instructions for compiling)?

I'm using 3.12.13 kernel with support for Wolfson audio card....
Code: Select all
[root@runeaudio ~]# uname -a
Linux runeaudio 3.12.13-rt21_wosa #1 PREEMPT RT Wed Apr 30 17:51:17 CEST 2014 armv6l GNU/Linux

- which might complicate matters a bit... :(
