Wi-Fi Adaptor Validation #36

Closed ryanteck closed 3 years ago

ryanteck commented 3 years ago

Either re-validate, or test new adaptors / chipsets in the following list

Module Status Notes
RT5370 Fully working
RTL8188EUS Fully working (CHIP_8188E_Normal_Chip_TSMC_UNKNOWN_CUT)
RTL8188ETV Fully working Identifies as EUS in lsusb, (CHIP_8188E_Normal_Chip_TSMC_D_CUT_1T1R_RomVer)
RTL8821CU No Also does not work on UB 20.04 / KERN 5.8
RTL8723BU No Does work on UB 20.04 / KERN 5.8
MT7601U To Be Tested
shawaj commented 3 years ago

might be worth testing MT7601U as well. I believe it works with Pi. Not as a main option, but a potential if we have stock issues further down the line. Should not be necessary, but always good to have backup options

I think it is essentially the same as RT5370 but just mediatek branded instead of ralink since they bought them out

Created a wiki page at https://github.com/NebraLtd/helium-miner-software/wiki/Wi-Fi-Adaptor-Compatability-List so we can close this issue once all added.

Keeping some more of the tech wiki docs on here instead of the normal docs site to avoid confusion to the average customer.

shawaj commented 3 years ago

Yeah good plan. We can use that for stuff that's more for us than customers

Edimax dongle that arrived from CPC does not work, looks like it is the RTL8723BU
