I'm using a Pi 2 (Model B) with latest Recalbox installed (18.07.13). Ethernet network is working, but not Wi-Fi
-
Wi-Fi network settings:
- SSID visible ? Yes
- Chanel: 3
- WPA2-PSK/AES
-
recalbox network Interfaces without the Wi-Fi dongle

- I configure Wi-Fi directly in
recalbox.conf
.
$ grep wifi recalbox.conf
##Activate wifi (0,1)
wifi.enabled=1
##Set wifi region
wifi.region=FR
wifi.ssid=le-wifi-de-morgoth
wifi.key=enc:U2FsdGVkX1/fU30c3mVxGS0ngl1HclFBOFv9Y1qPFFU=

;wifi2.ssid=new ssid
;wifi2.key=new key
#third wifi (not configurable via the user interface)
;wifi3.ssid=new ssid
;wifi3.key=new key

- Here's the output of

I reconfigured the wifi.key
with clear text value before rebooting. Still no Wi-Fi after reboot. No problem with this hardware configuration when running raspbian.
-
Let me know if you need the complete dmesg
output after rebooting the recalbox with the Wi-Fi dongle pluged-in.

Any idea ?
