All of the USB WiFi adapters I've tried work fine on a Windows 10 computer
Does the dongle work on this computer on another operating system?

Sorry, I don't mean to be boring, but to avoid comprehension problems and try to rule out all possibilities, I need more accurate information:
I want to know if this dongle ever worked ON THIS computer with another OS, and you claimed it works on ONE computer (doesn't make it clear that it's the same computer). We need to rule out a problem in THIS computer's BIOS, and/or some kind of specific conflict with this model, testing on another computer won't rule out this possibility, you know?

Cudy WU650

I don't know what the technical difference is or if there is a difference between drivers, but the version that is listed as compatible is the Cudy WU650S:

What are some of the other things I should try, before giving up and running a 75 ft Ethernet cable to the router?

Have you checked that there is no configuration to be done in the computer's BIOS?

@dab12ac First, please use the forum search system before opening a thread:

You are not able to run Recalbox directly from the SSD because you are doing it wrong:
Rpi is not designed to boot the system other than from the SD card. You need to install Recalbox on your SD card, and use your SSD to store the ROMS/BIOS/saves/etc, just select the storage location from the Emulationstation menu.

Watch this video, it might be helpful:

@meme94 Well, you didn't watch the entire video, it mentions that if you have a previous version, it's best to watch this video:

But, I complement and say that this other video is also good for that:

@retroplayer88 @Emma I'm not a developer, I'm not even a team member, I'm "just" a moderator, I help keep the forum organized and I try to help users where possible before there's a need for developer intervention.
I'll not "release" any betas, and it's not often that a fix is readily available.

I recommend that one of you open an issue describing the problem and referencing this topic (and that the other confirm the issue):

@pavlli See if this helps:

@alex122 ca fonctionne en 7.2 et 7.2.1 beta 3 aussi 😉

@tedrak bonjour
Tu es le seul à nous faire remonter des pbs de Wifi.
Soit tu as un souci de Wifi chez toi, ta box, en tout cas un pb local.
Soit tu as un boitier qui pourrait poser pb ?

Bonsoir @scavy ,

Merci beaucoup.
S'il y a besoin et si les dév de Recalbox inscrivent ceci dans leur todo list un jour je peux vous proposer de tester la prise en charge de mon dongle sous OGS.

J'espère vous fournir la bonne référence car c'est un dongle que j'ai récupéré et dont je n'ai pas fait l'acquisition par moi même.
Je pense que c'est celle-ci au visuel par rapport aux dongles Ralink disponibles sur le net.

Si vous avez une astuce pour me permettre de m'assurer du modèle je suis preneur également.
J'ai fouillé du côté des propriétés du périphérique depuis un PC mais sans parvenir à trouver l'information.

Merci par avance de votre aide.

@markymark It is not necessary to use a keyboard, it is possible to configure the wi-fi with the joystick using the virtual keyboard. But it is obvious that you will use either a joystick, or a keyboard to play on the Recalbox, so this is not a problem, right?

je constate que cela marche si le ssid est non masqué, comment puis-je dans ce cas mettre le connecter avec un réseau masqué svp?

@OyyoDams
Thanks for reply.
I have a "Netis WF2123" (don't know which chipset) and a USB-WLAN-Stick with Ralink 5370 chipset. The Ralink 5370 is working with the OGS - but not with the current version of RecalBox.
With other Operating-Systems my WLAN-Stick is working with the OGS. So it seems to be no Hardwareissue.

c'est l'essentiel que tout marche 😉

Hi all,

this is issue was confirmed as bug in the current version 7.1.1. It could be solved and the fix will be included in the next release.

See:
https://gitlab.com/recalbox/recalbox/-/issues/1492
"V7.1.1 - RECALBOX WiFi intf fails to connect if WPA2 with SHA256 is set"

CHANGELOG.md for the next version says
"- Fix wifi support for open, WPA-PSK-SHA256 and WPA3-Personal (#1492)"

So, also issues with open and WPA3 Personal WiFis will be fixed

Cheers,
