Hello all,

Orange Pi 5b v1.1 16GB/256GB

 

# Wi-Fi 6 and WPA3 are not available options in current Debian Cinnamon release.

# OP 5b does have these features so comparability isn't an issue.

# Works fine with Orange Pi images.

# All steps given on download page were taken.

 

Help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

I didn't really find any solid answers on this. I switched to the Gnome variant and everything is fine. It actually resolves a couple of issues I'm having. I don't love the Gnome desktop environment but I needed the faster connection for the intended purpose. I switched to Gnome for now so I can move forward.

 

So, I guess that's solved...

 

EDIT:

I wanted to mention that that the Cinnamon desktop, it self, is great. I would still recommend it for someone that isn't as worried about Wi-Fi speed and security. Not being afraid of config files would also help. I still have this tucked away on an SD card. I'm hoping to get everything resolved with it at some point. 

 

Thanks for your time.
