Re: [beagleboard] USB mini male cable (both sides mini)
And so why is it that the Raspberry Pi has 4 USB ports? It is just a bit annoying almost always I end up with an extra USB hub that is almost as large as the BBB itself. Well anyhow, good I asked, saved me from destroying two USB cables :) On Wed, Dec 17, 2014 at 9:26 AM, Robert Nelson robertcnel...@gmail.com wrote: On Wed, Dec 17, 2014 at 8:04 AM, Tommi thomas0f...@gmail.com wrote: Well the slave usb port is hard wired for slave only, so you'd also have to physically modify the board.. That is annoying. That means basically that I am stuck with an USB hub?! PS: I really think having a couple of USB Ports should be on such a board. The chip's got dual ports. ;) One can be a host, the other is a slave... There are a few other 3rd party am335x boards with dual usb hosts.

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Wifi unreliable
Small update, I got the TL-WN722N to work. Since yesterday evening it is online, hope it will stay that way. The biggest problem was that wlan0 was already taken from the old dongle, so it now runs on wlan3. first I followed this instructions: (not sure if I had to :)) https://wiki.debian.org/ath9k_htc Then I had some problems that I would see wlan3 in iwconfig, but wicd-curses would not be able to access it (added wlan3 in prefs) I think adding wlan3 to /etc/network/interfaces did the trick for me. thanks for all the suggestions, I think I am now happy (until the next problem...)

I have been using Win all my life until I started with the beaglebone - Not easy to change habits :P -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

Re: [beagleboard] Re: Wifi unreliable
Thanks, I really hope it will work. It is amongst the most frustrating things to have something that works sometimes On Tue, Dec 2, 2014 at 11:44 AM, Sandeep Sangli sand...@freolabs.com wrote: @Tommi, We had similar problems with RTL8192/Realtek dongles. We moved to TP-LINK 722 and so far its been super! We've tested streaming video for over 2 weeks with it now. As David mentioned, Atheros seems to play well with Debian.

I just ordered a different USB plug, let's see if that improves things. After tinkering so much with it, it seems the better options. In the end it is probably cheaper spending another $14, rather than sitting hours of hours trying to fix it. Hope the TP-LINK TL-WN722N http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002SZEOLG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8psc=1 will help. I'll also try to also do what you suggest Dave, let's see if that helps too.
