@dmanlfc has managed to fix this issue for me, he has created a special dev build for me that properly loads the latest realtek WLAN drivers which makes the Odroid branded wifi dongle work, the fix is already in the master branch..
Me and @dmanlfc have been talking on discord these last few days, and today we managed to solve this issue..
Hopefully you guys can continue enjoying batocera, As I just started using it, and I am already ecstatic..
