FriendlyARM USB WiFi Kits

hi, all
FriendlyARM have released a USB WiFi kits for mini2440, with the kits, it's
easy to use USB Wifi module.
here is the download link:
http://arm9download.cncncn.com/download/usb-wifi-kits-for-mini2440-linux...

how to use
==========
be sure your mini2440 linux version is : linux-2.6.32.x 
1. unzip the package at the "/" directory
#tar xvzf usb-wifi-kits-for-mini2440-linux-2.6.32.2-20100728.tar.gz -C /
2. plug the USB WiFi module into mini2440/micro2440
3. scan the avaiable WiFi nearby.
#scan-wifi
4. connect the WiFi
#start-wifi wpa WiFi-Test pass1234
the IP address will be assigned automatically with dhcp. 
5. stop it.
#stop-wifi

support USB WiFi module list:
* TL-WN321G+
* TL-WN322G+
* QCOM LR802UKG

more tpyes will be supported in the future.

i have an other usb dongle and get this errors:

just test the following type is avaiable on mini2440:

* TL-WN422G+
* TL-WN721N
* TL-WN722N

Hi mindee...
I have tried to connect with some different kinds of USB modules, and with
TL-WN721N I haven't sucess...
When I plug the USB adapter, and I write "scan-wifi" the console returns:

Yes, I Cross-Compiled my own Kernel, the most of USB wifi modules is
enabled...
Any Idea?
Thanks

To use the USB WiFi Kits, you need the new kernel 

The latest Linux kernel source code:
http://arm9download.cncncn.com/mini2440/linux/linux-2.6.32.2-mini2440-20...
And the binary files:
http://arm9download.cncncn.com/mini2440/mini2440-linux-images-20100729.zip

Please try.

Mindee

Mindee
do you have another mirror to the binary files? I'm in Brazil and the
download speed is 4kb/s! :S
Thanks

Sorry, only this now.

hello,

has anybody successed to use TL-WN721N on mini2440? I'm also trying to
download a kernel but with the kernel on friendlyarm-downloads it doesn't
work. I hope it works with 'Mindee's link. It's downloading with 7kb/sec.

Still no more mirrors?

thanks.

yigitalp, 
Use a download manager, like Orbit...
^^

hello,

Thanks Viecelli, i've downloaded with DAP, i refreshed the kernel and
qtopia rootfs but my TL-WN721N still doesn't work. Only, it doesn't give
these long error lines, it only says;

"ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device
0 Access Point Found"

I guess this driver support doesn't cover TL-WN721N, does it? Anyone made
it work?

I've the same problem...

hi, yigitalp

please try with  a longer usb extension cable, or use TL-WN722N which can
search more WiFi spot.  

I will post a picture later.

mindee,

my device's model is VNT6656AU. When i enter with "scan-wifi" only says:

"ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device
0 Access Point Found"


What can i do now?

Thanks

yigitalp:
I have this problem, and isn't solved...
The driver for TL-WN721N isn't OK...
the error: "SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device" occurs when the device wasn't
acknowledged... the firmware wasn't carregado...

When you plug a device that have a driver, the kernel replies like:
Loading rt73.bin ...

:D

I'll wait for a kernel with the correct driver... Thanks

hi,

here is the snapshot of my mini2440 with USB WiFi:

and here is the linux version I use:
http://arm9download.cncncn.com/mini2440/usb-wifi/mini2440-linux-version.jpg

Hi again Mindee,
So, I don't got success with TL-WN721N..
I downloaded the latest version of the kernel that you post here, and I
will cross-compile, I will to lunch, and upload on my board... in a few
hours I reply on forum..

Thanks... ^^

Well, thank you Mindee...
The TL-WN721N works fine... *-*
And I'm sorry for doubting you... :)

cya

Help me Mindee,

Bruno, if you are brazilian give me your email to talk about this prob. i
need to solve it xD

Thanks

hey,

something new for the wifi support for VNT6656AU??

thanks

Hello,

i'mm french, my english will not be very good...
i'm trying to connect my mini2440 board to a wifi wlan using a TL-WN321G
usb key... my network is not escurised and his name is ROBIRIS, on channel
6...

when i use scan-wifi command i obtain :


100% ROBIRIS

1 Acces Point Found

i think it's normal...

i try to connect using :
start-wifi none ROBIRIS

and i obtain :
socket(PF_PACKET): Address family not supported by protocol
udhcpc (v1.13.3) started
udhcpc: socket : Address family not supported by protocol


what is the problem please?

thank you very much !

I have problems with the rt2070 chip in the TL-WN321G. I compiled the 32
kernel with all rtlink drivers included. The rt2050 chip works. I installed
the kit and ran scan-wifi:

Any help would be appreciated!

I recompiled the 2.6.32.2 kernel from the default T35 settings just adding
DHCP support and ran the scan-wifi tests again.
I also checked on a Win7 laptop that the rt2070 dongle works.
Also help would be extra nice.

I found that link that writes how to compile for the micro2440 + emdebian a
TL-WN321Gv4 driver. The link is in Thai but by Google Translate I could
understand most of it. My problem is how to cross compile this for the
standard FriendlyArm 2.6.32.2 or 2.6.29. kernel. We have a stock of 80 v4
dongles that we need to get to work and deliver. 
 The link is http://www.electoday.com/bbs/archiver/?tid-10317.html.
 Any help on this or getting the v4 to work in a different manner would be
appreciated.
 Thanks

Hi mindee,
I can't download by
http://arm9download.cncncn.com/download/usb-wifi-kits-for-mini2440-linux...
Is there any problem with this link?

http://www.friendlyarm.net/downloads -> Linux

Thanks Andreas. I found it.

I installed everything, and did start-wifi with the credintials but it just
says:

udhcpc (v1.13.1) started
sending discover...
sending discover...
sending discover...
sending discover...
sending discover...

and repeats
any suggestions?

Hi all,

I followed the instructions and I obtain an error when the TL-WN721N is
inserted...

I used the 2.6.32.2 kernel and Wifi Kit, any idea what is the problem?

Thanks

Is possible that in the last friendlyarm kernel (2.6.32.2 - 2011-04-13)
there's not ATH9K tag ????

I also followed the procedure:

1. scan-wifi
2. start-wifi wep ssid pass

but I realized that it immediately starts udhcpc, which is a dhcp client
app, that by default takes eth0 as interface... sending discover packets
through ethernet would take a long long time to get WLAN IP address :D


A slightly longer, but easier approach is to perform the following (for
WEP, but I guess for WPA would be similar):

1. scan-wifi   (sometimes it takes a few retries, until sees Access Point).
2. iwconfig        (see what interface name is assigned to your wifi  
                       dongle).
3. iwconfig wlan0 mode managed
4. iwconfig wlan0 key restricted <KEY OR PASSWORD>
5. iwconfig wlan0 essid <ACCESS POINT NAME>
6. ifconfig wlan0 up
7. udhcpc -iwlan0

And right away it will assign you an IP address... 

You can also modify /usr/share/udhcpc/default.script  to perform dhcp
discover also on wifi, but under your own risk.

Regards...

Forgot one thing:

just after step scan-wifi,  you need to either remove eth0 interface with 

#ifconfig eth0 down

or remove default route

#route del default

Hope it helps you.

Regards

Hi all,
       I have recently caught with promblem with wifi module used in
friendlyARM module. I am using Netgear's usb to wifi module(rtl8192 chip).
I tried with both GUI and commands (scan-wifi) but it displays 'no access
points'.When i give 'lsmod' it gives a list of wifi driver modules
including my rtl8192.But wifi doesn't work. Will you please help me to
solve issue or will you please tell me the steps to configure usb-wifi
driver of rtl8192.

Thanks in advance
