Or I will invest some more money for a wireless ethernet bridge, which is recommended by a lot of people. So far no problems with this hub and I have another one which works fine and poweres several USB Bitcoin miners.
Any attempt to do apt-get upgrade from this image leads to FS corruptions. Did you do an lsusb -V to see how much power the dongle claims it needs? Is it USB2 or USB3? I recall some people have trouble with USB3 devices. I have an image copy (with 8192cu driver installed) which is 'stable' but this image is not updatable for now. If I do accidentally, lots of USB disconnects.Īll those disconnects sound fishy, though, indeed. Rather than return it, I stuffed something in to tighen the fit and never mess with the cables. My Pi had lots of trouble if I touched my USB connections at all, sometimes rebooting, sometimes just forgetting USB was there, as one of the sockets is a bit too loose. It has to be between 4.75 and 5.25.Īnother possibility is a bad cable, or loose USB socket. You will know if your hub is delivering enough power if you test the actual power on the Pi with a multimeter between TP1 and TP2.

you cannot install one compiled for an i686 machine or other arm devices, it has to have been compiled for armv6h to work on what we are running. But the first step is to make sure you have the right driver. I think there are a lot of posts around the Pi forums in general, by folks saying what they did to get theirs working. I have no experience with wifi dongles, though. By default, any raspberry pi has the hostname raspberrypi assigned to it, which may turn out.
There are some global globbing patterns used, but some devices also get listed individually there. I am running an older version because of some apps that are no longer supported, but on my pi, the file is the following: BUt if this is not a regular arch image, your files won't necessarily be the same as ours. Those have to match up with a driver in the modules alias file. Firstly, this device is not recognized by this Linaro distribution, whereas desktop Ubuntu and UbuntuMATE running on a Raspberry Pi identify and utilize. IT would help if you posted the lsusb output showing the product and manufacturer IDs.
