[SOLVED] TP-LINK TL-WN725N doesn't work

Hi there,

I'm trying to get working this Wifi dongle, but nothing. The weird thing is that it really works on Kodi, but not in Recalbox. How can it be possible. Thank you!

Hi, there is a topic in the French forum about this dongle : https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/980/tuto-faire-fonctionner-la-carte-wifi-tp-link-tl-wn725n

So first, if you are using a recalbox version 4.0, you must remount / partition with write right. Go on ssh, then :
mount -o remount, rw /

Then you must download a missing firmware :
wget https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu/raw/master/rtl8188eufw.bin -O /lib/firmware/rtlwifi/rtl8188eufw.bin

I read the french forum but I didn't find the first command. Now it works correctly. Thank you!
