Hi teddy, I use 0bda:8176 and a 148f:5370 all the time. These are a development RPi and main testing RPi in my system. No major problem. wifi is never prefect. I keep an eye on the neighbours to try an avoid the channels they are using. My microwave oven also interferes with one of them. Use [Wifi] > [Diagnotics] to get all the wifi stastics. Once you visit this page a wifi log will also be generated. [Wifi] > [Diagnotics] > [Logs] Main things I look for are signal quality, signal strength, dropped packets (<10%) and the channels used by other wifi ap nearby. Driver develop seems to favour Windows. Often manufacturers release a newer version of their wifi adaptors and change the chipset. They are often still marketed as the same device. They will release a new driver that probably works on Windows but the Linux version is non-existent or buggy. I hope you only have one wifi adaptor plugged in at once. Also, you need to reboot with the wifi adaptor installed to ensue all the software is loaded. regards Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=105018 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
