Re: Can't enable Dreamplug WLAN

I've run off of a wired connection for 4 years, but now have moved and need to use wifi. Has a fix been developed in the 4-5 years since I first encountered this problem?

Re: Can't enable Dreamplug WLAN

If there is no fix for this coming, I think you should change the hardware web page and warn people that there may not be any WLAN support in the dreamplug they buy from Globalscale. It's no fun going through all of this and then not have WLAN support. If I knew this going in, I would have just ...

Re: Can't enable Dreamplug WLAN

Sad news.

The new part doesn't work with the libertas driver.

the Globalscale ships with a driver called sd8xxx.ko and a kernel of 2.6.33.7-dirty.
At best, these drivers would need to be recompiled to work with the meteohub 2.6.32 kernel. (I'm not really set up to try this.)

There is also talk on ...

Re: Can't enable Dreamplug WLAN

It appears that globalscale has changed to the marvell 8787 part

http://www.newit.co.uk/forum/index.php/ ... 741.0.html

I have the same symptom as this person.

should this be as simple as putting the correct .bin files in and loading the libertas module?

Re: Can't enable Dreamplug WLAN

Trying to figure out why Meteohub can't see my WLAN hardware. Anything I can pull off of the unit that will help us debug this?

Re: Can't enable Dreamplug WLAN

I bought from Globalscale and have made no changes. (Would have bought from the other source that sells the image along with it, but they didn't have a US option.) When it boots from the internal (non-SD) code, the wifi light turns on (blue) along with teh bluetooth light. It's been a couple of ...

Re: Can't enable Dreamplug WLAN

Thanks. My problem is I can't find anywhere in the meteohub menus to enable it. The screen shots in the documentation show it on the same page as the LAN info. My screen show only the LAN. Is there somewhere else I need to go to do the enabling?

Can't enable Dreamplug WLAN

Got the dreamplug. Followed the instructions to put meteohub on SD card. Managed to finally be able to access it by ethernet port.
access the meteo hub software via web-server interface. WLAN doesn't show up.

Went back to console -- ifconfig shows only eth0.

Rebooted off of the internal micro-SD ...
