I think the firmware is loaded, the following is the syslog when the wifi
dongle is plugged in

Somehow I guess the problem may be at the wpa configuration part.

One more thing to check is that the firmware is available and gets loaded.
Then it has worked for me.

Hi,
I have a BB Black RevC with its original Debian OS.
When I plugged in a Aztech wifi dongle: the dongle's blue light is on.
when I do lsusb, I can see

the wifi adapter is detected.
when I do lsmod,

it looks like the driver is loaded into OS.
this is my interface file in /etc/networks regarding to wlan0 part
#auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-driver wext
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
#nl80211
and wpa_supplicant part
network={
ap_scan=1
ssid=myssid
psk=**
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK2
My problem is I cannot get the wifi connection.
If I do ifconfig, I can see wlan0.
Can any expert tell me what I missed?
