Wi-Fi Modules not working v30 - N2

bhazard

Is there a way to get wi-fi recognized on the N2? I’m using the Hardkernel wi-fi module 5A and I cannot get Batocera to load it. Any known working modules?

Haven’t tried v30 yet, but on v29, I could only get the 2.4ghz dongle to work. I also tried using the hardkernel 5A module, and could never get it to connect to my 5ghz network. The module worked fine on other hardware and on different operating systems on the N2, so it seemed to be an issue with Batocera specifically.

Assuming the issue is still persistent on v30, I’d recommend picking up the 2.4ghz wifi dongle and using that for now.

@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..
