I've now received the Edimax, and it seems to work fine now without the usb hub. So the conclusion of this is (its probably been said before but I'll reiterate :) ): - Not all raspberry pies are created equal, even when they are the same model some might supply enough power to USB for the TP link WN725N wifi adapter to work, others might not (and this does not seem to be dependent on power supply) - The Edimax ew-7811 needs less power than the TP link, and has a better chance of working without a USB hub (tested on model B v2 only) Thanks to everyone for their help. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chluz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63178 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803
