Anyone with any ideas?

Must be plenty of other people with this dongle chipset and Recalbox.

Some more info...

My build is Linux RECALBOX 3.10.106 #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 10 12:52:30 UTC 2019 armv7l GNU/Linux

The odroid wi-fi dongle is detected - device 4 below (8th line).

After a bit more digging, the Netgear dongle also uses a Realtek RTL8811AU chipset.

Basically both dongles use the same chipset! Tested on my laptop and the Netgear dongle definitely works so it is a s/w (more likely driver) issue.

Any ideas how to install the drivers on Recalbox / Linux?

Following my previous post, I've checked and the Netgear A6100 - AC600 Dual Band WiFi USB Mini Adapter has Vid_0846&Pid_9052&Rev_0200.

According to this its a Realtek chip:

The odroid dongle has Vid_0BDA&pid_A811&Rev_0200which according to this is a rebranded Realtek RTL8811AU Wireless LAN 802.11ac USB 2.0 Network Adapter:

I don't mind which one we get working.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi, noob here requiring help.

I've got a Odroid UX4 in an OGST case running Recalbox.

I can't connect to the wi-fi. I'm using a Netgear WNA3100M usb dongle, which according to this is Recalbox complatible:

https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Compatibility-(EN)

From the network settings menu, I type in my home wi-fi ssid and password but nothing happens when I click ok. The status and ip address remains 'Not connected'. If I hardwired connect using an RJ45 cable, everything works do it's definitely a wi-fi issue.

I'm guessing I need to install the drivers for the dongle but don't know how to do that. A Google search hasn't been much help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
