Dm900 uhd 4k TP-Link TL-WN821N Wifi dongle (chipset rtl8192eu ?)

thanks you master G... can an .ipk be downloaded on a DM900/NN2 ? thought it should be an .deb ? let me try anyway and i will report

it is what i thought… doesn't appear in the manual install if placed in /tmp… is there any firmware-rtl8192eu_1.0-r0_all.deb ?

yes please… i am using NewNigma2

Thanks…. The installation went well but my stick is still not recognized

to the command # usb-devices i can read this is the usb N°5

T: Bus=04 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 2 Spd=480 MxCh= 0

D: Ver= 2.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1

P: Vendor=2357 ProdID=0107 Rev=02.00

S: Manufacturer=Realtek

S: Product=802.11n NIC

S: SerialNumber=00e04c000001

C: #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=e0 MxPwr=500mA

I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 5 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=(none)

yet my usb is a TP-Link TL-821N and in TP-Link website the driver pack indicates clearly that the chipset is rtl8192eu thus my request…

but as you can see there is still no driver attached to the stick ! : Driver=(none)

is there a way of forcing NN2 to attach the installed driver to the usb device ? or any ther command that establish the association ?

and btw if i issue the command # apt-get install kernel-module-rtl8192* …. i read this

kernel-module-rtl8192c-common is already the newest version.

kernel-module-rtl8192ce is already the newest version.

kernel-module-rtl8192cu is already the newest version.

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

but the driver rtl8192eu is not listed after the above install

thanks for the help… Another hint

when i type # modinfo rtl8192*

NN2 returns this

modinfo: ERROR: Module rtl8192eu-linux-driver-master not found

(actually i did a previous attempt following tutorials from the manufacturer to compile the driver on linux but i stopped the sequence as the tutorials were not meant to apply to NN2 environment…. i have been asked to issue a dkms command ! anyway… )
