Hi everybody,
I am trying to run Pypilot on a Raspberry PI B+ V1 which has no embedded WIFI chip, so I am trying to use this USB WIFI dongle instead: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/downl...wn725n/v3/
At least Linux is supported, however in the installation guide for Linux provided https://static.tp-link.com/2018/201812/2...0Linux.pdf PiCore is not listed and the last driver version goes up to Kernel version 4.4.3 whereas the current piCore kernel is 4.9.22...anyways this is what I did so far:
- I tried to plug the WIFI dongle and start the raspberry and prayed...but nothing happened...
- I downloaded the driver zip file from tp-link website on my computer and unzipped it
- I tried to compile a driver on my computer (Unbuntu 18.04.4 LTS) but after several errors the MAKE command failed to generate a driver
- from my computer i ssh the raspberry which is connected to my internet router via ethernet cable (192.168.1.93 address)
lsusb command returns:
and...I really do not know what to do next, so any idea is welcome! (buying a new raspberry Pi is probably the most sensible option but I am a bit stubborn i reckon)
Kind regards
