4 years ago I can't help you compile the drivers / kernel, but I can tell you at least two USB WLAN adapters that are ready to work out of the box. Try your luck on: Alfa Network AWUS036NHA (Atheros) or MediaTek RT5370N (Ralink) Adapters. Also keep in mind that you need an isolated gateway for each WLAN connection.

Thanks!! I checked this in my region, too costly for me. Let me try compilation first. Thanks again.

4 years ago By default git is on develop branch, if you want current release you need to use master branch and use OMR_FEED_SRC="master" ./build.sh when compiling.
I think some of your adapters should work with kmod-rtl8xxxu but it's possible that only firmwares are missing from my image.

OK. Can I somehow get firmware for 0.55.3? Also, let me try with "master" and get back. I tried rtl8xxxu but no luck. It worked with one adapter till it kept working for few mins, and then disconnected. Then keep authenticating but timed out.

4 years ago Does the "short" working adapter authenticate and keep 1Mbits as RX/TX line in your WLAN tab? If so, you can try a clean factory installation with only this adapter installed to the Pi. While switching through different wlan interfaces I also observed strange phenomena where I don't know if the error is due to the adapters, OpenWRT or OpenMPTCP. A clean OS reinstallation (which probably resets the wlan interfaces completely) has often helped me with adapters that are actually recognized correctly but not working as expected (dmesg).

Actually when I tested those 4 adapters, I didnt do any changes at all ... all was factory installed. One of them worked very erratically.
Has anyone got any experience on compiling modules on RPI with openmptcprouter?

4 years ago Please, tell exactly what you want else it's not possible to help you. I think you want to use some particular drivers, and to make a real support you will need to make real packages for them as any Linux distribution.

Sure, here are the adapters and their chipsets. TPLink TL-WN822N - RTL8192EU TPLink TL-WN725N - RTL8188EUS TPLink TL-WN722N - AR9271? Tenda W311MI - RTL8188GU Since they are not working out of box, am trying to download source and compile them. For example, $ git clone https://github.com/ZeeRooo/RTL8192EU.git $ cd RTL8192EU/ $ make clean $ make <-- fails at this $ make install $ modprobe 8192eu
But for every such make, I get this error as I dont have kernel source/headers. And "opkg install linux-headers (with/without uname -r)" doesnt work since it doesnt find the package. make[1]: *** /lib/modules/5.4.58/build: No such file or directory
Please help!

Hi Ysurac, is it possible for you to give me quick pointers on how to build wifi driver/module? This is showstopper for me. Any help you provide greatly appreciated.

3 years ago Finally, I bought Leoxsys LEO-HG150N 150Mbps Wireless USB Wi-Fi Adapter and it works great since it has RT5370. Thanks for all your support.

this is really not an OMR-issue, but a general Openwrt question. I would consider asking in the forum.openwrt.org

2 years ago The wifi adapters are TL-WN722N
FYI now for me this adapter works out of the box. OMR v0.58.5-r0+16336-b36068d35d RPI3B+
I am fairly new to driver compilation, so pl bare with me. I have RPI4 and using 0.55.3 on it. I want to bond 3 wifi connections. I have 4 different USB wifi adapters but none of them are supported by openmptcprouter/openwrt. Pl suggest if I can download and use drivers from somewhere. The wifi adapters are TL-WN722N, Tenda W311MI, TL-WN725N, TL-WN822N.
Since I couldnt find readymade drivers, I am trying to compile them, but stuck at kernel headers/source. Where can I download source for 5.4.58 which is used in 0.55.3?
Since couldnt find the headers/source, I tried to compile openmptcprouter with OMR-TARGET=rpi4. I was able to finish it with success, but then it chose latest .56beta9 and the opkg update is not working with this tag. Then I downloaded the .ipk from my build but it seems online packages are more than this build (e.g. git-http is not there in my build, but its available OMR package website 0.55.3)
Then I tried git clone --branch 0.55.3. But at the end, the img.gz says its 0.56beta9. Not sure if its just naming issue or it really made build with .56beta9
Could someone pl help?
