I've got a BBB running Debian 3.8. My WIFI dongle is a TPLink TL-WN722N (one of the recognized/working dongles).
I'm running into the following issue. When I have eth0 connected, my wlan0 connection works great. When I remove my eth0 connection, my wlan0 connection no longer works. By no longer works I mean I can't ping/ssh into the device. With eth0 connected, I can do both things using the wifi connection. I've posted my network interface file below. I've never run into an issue like this before. Anybody have any ideas? # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them.
