ron123456 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 Hi I am using a NanoPi M1+ device with nanopi-m1-plus_sd_friendlycore-xenial_4.14_armh OS in it. I attached an RTL8188EU WiFi adapter in it. But the **ifconfig** doesn't show up. On doing **lsusb** I get Bus 008 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0bda:8179 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.

You are using a 4.14 kernel (of FriendlyCore from FriendlyARM whcih isnt supported in this forum) and your module source is for a 4.11 kernel - thats the issue that doesnt match. You could try armbian images (both also kernel 4.14) fromhttps://www.armbian.com/nanopi-m1-plus/https://dl.armbian.com/nanopim1plus/archive/Armbian_5.65_Nanopim1plus_Ubuntu_bionic_next_4.14.78.7zhttps://dl.armbian.com/nanopim1plus/archive/Armbian_5.65_Nanopim1plus_Debian_stretch_next_4.14.78.7z but the status of the M1+ is for armbian EOS=End od Service - because there are to much other SBCs I dont know if yout USB-WiFi is supported with this armbian-version.

But it is unable to connect to the wifi as station. I am using the internal wifi hardware for AP and external wlan adapter (RTL8188) to connect to the WiFi. On doing ... root@nanopim1plus:~# wpa_supplicant -B -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -i wlxc025e925ab14 I got, Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant nl80211: Could not configure driver mode nl80211: deinit ifname=wlxc025e925ab14 disabled_11b_rates=0 wlxc025e925ab14: Failed to initialize driver interface I dont know how to resolve this?

Igor Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 On 11/30/2018 at 1:32 PM, ron123456 said: I dont know how to resolve this? - try using recommended way of connecting to wireless: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Getting-Started/#how-to-connect-to-wireless - blacklisting internal driver and searching for a better one. (we can't develop armbian, deal with its users and support every wifi on the planet with a few people. Search Github for projects as such: https://github.com/ulli-kroll ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
