Which USB WiFi Dongle

fenris

Hi,
is there anywhere a compatibilty-list which USB WiFi-Dongle works with batocera 5.25?
Searched the forum and wiki but haven`t found anything helpful.

I´ve got a BIGtec120 with Ralink RT3070 chipset, but dont get it to work.
How could i check if the Stick is recognized?
Ive configured my SSID/Key in "/userdata/system/batocera.conf" but couldnt get it to work.

I couldn't get Wi-Fi to work on 5.24 or 5.25. I'm using a wired connection. I think there's too many variables (combination of computer, settings, dongle) that make it difficult to have a definitive list if what works and what doesn't.

Hi,
i dont think so. Some chipsets should be supported by the OS itself. Otherwise the option to enable WiFi wouldnt make any sense...
So if we would know which, we could choose the right dongle. It`s that simple!

^^ Just found a solution.
My WiFi-dongle works, if i stick it to us USB2.0 port.
Seems like the USB3.0 ports are not working!
