Hi again Greg,
Yes I can confirm that I did steps 1 through 3 above (again). This time
yet again with a freshly flashed pCP4.0.0-b6 image.
I get the following text in the window under Save:
[ INFO ] Loading wifi firmware extensions...
[ OK ] Atheros firmware loaded.
[ OK ] Broadcom USB firmware loaded.
[ OK ] Ralink firmware loaded.
[ OK ] Realtek firmware loaded.

When I press the scan button, it detects my wifi SSID. Furthermore, it
shows the correct wifi MAC address.
I then unplug the wired internet and reboot the device.
Upon reboot, the USB wifi adapter starts blinking showly (approx 1 Hz),
but it gets no connection. This is exactly the same behaviour as the now
almost hundred times I have done this exercise.
I have now plugged wired internet cable in again, and it immediately
gets an IP number.
In wifi diagnostics it now says under dmesg:
[ 3.024688] usb 1-1.2: New USB device found, idVendor=0bda,
idProduct=8179
[ 3.024709] usb 1-1.2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2,
SerialNumber=3
[ 3.024720] usb 1-1.2: Product: 802.11n NIC
[ 3.024729] usb 1-1.2: Manufacturer: Realtek
[ 5.870078] zram: Added device: zram0
.
Under loaded modules it says:
Module Size Used by
r8188eu 420608 0
cfg80211 545360 1 r8188eu
rfkill 21483 1 cfg80211
Under lsusb it says:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0bda:8179
And for wpa_supplicant.conf it shows:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=staff
country=DK
update_config=1
network={
#enc_ssid="KHMJEJ"
ssid="KHMJEJ"
psk=9ca1e317b3bfe95dd01918e2863853a7604a500fa22aae5372550d02f1e5f542
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
auth_alg=OPEN
}
I must furthermore say I now created a brand new wifi password with only
alphanumeric characters in it, and it did not help.
I have not uploaded the wifi diagnostics to pastebin with paste name:
pCP-B+-775bd5-wifi
Finally, I will repeat that I am using an old RPi 1B+ with a Hifiberry
DAC+ card and the problematic USB wifi adapter, and that this
configuration has worked for the last few years with different versions
of pCP without any problems, the latest tested version being 3.5.0.
Hope this helps identify the problem, and thanks again for your help. I
will now do at test that Paul asked me to do in a PM.
regards,
Jens Erik
