Aodren Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 hi, I made a program on Orange pi minus (kernel 3.X)using wpa_supplicant for wifi direct. That worked fine (basically). But i have been asked to do it on Orange pi plus with Kernel 4.9. The wifi works when i using nmtui, but when i made a iw list i couldn't find my material and i am not able to configure P2P. I think the problem is the kernel version and not the Hardware because my card with kernel 3.X works on orange pi pc plus. So i am a bit lost, what can i do ? My guest is to modify the realtek module ? I am not sure if i am on the right direction... Thanks, Ps: Sorry for my english.
Aodren Posted December 14, 2016 Author Posted December 14, 2016 I clone https://github.com/jwrdegoede/rtl8189ES_linuxand compile the 8189fs and that seems to working 1
bob Posted April 22, 2017 Posted April 22, 2017 https://github.com/jwrdegoede/rtl8189ES_linux can the code compile to 8189fs in linux4.9 ?
martinayotte Posted April 22, 2017 Posted April 22, 2017 8189ES isn't not the same as 8189FS. But, anyway, the 8189fs is already part of Armbian build for some boards such OPiPC+. Which board do you have ? And why do you need it under 4.9 ? Armbian is on 4.10 since months ...
Aodren Posted April 23, 2017 Author Posted April 23, 2017 (edited) If i remember correctly the git compile 8189fs and 8189es, so yes you can. after that i just removed the 8189fs.ko and paste the new one. But for wifi direct that just seems to work in CLIENT not in GO. Edit : If you manage to succeed direct wifi With a go negotation at most than 7 and you become a GO at the end, please let me Know .

martinayotte Posted May 17, 2017 Posted May 17, 2017 Armbian just switched from 4.10 to 4.11 recently, and the built-in 8189fs WiFi of OrangePiPC+ still working fine with nightly builds.
Bùi Xuân Tiến Posted November 27, 2017 Posted November 27, 2017 (edited) Hi Aodren, Could you please guide me to build a demonstration of file transfer via wifi direct? I need transfer a large file in a short time via wifi. I'm using board Orange Pi Plus 2 with Armbian 5.30 Xenial Desktop. Thank you in advance. Edited November 27, 2017 by Bùi Xuân Tiến
