TL-wn725n not working with octopi 0.17.0

johannesnicolaus commented 4 years ago

What were you doing?

Raspberry pi model: raspberry pi 1 model b+ WIFI dongle: TL-wn725n V1

Flashed Octopi 0.17.0 from previously flashed 0.16.0
Setup octopi-wpa-supplicant.txt the same way I did when I used 0.16.0
Turned on raspberry PI
Octopi would not connect to wifi

I also tried installing the following driver 8188eu-4.19.75-v8-1270.tar.gz from http://downloads.fars-robotics.net/wifi-drivers/8188eu-drivers/ but did not work.

Now I moved back to 0.16.0 and it works without any problem.

What did you expect to happen?

Octopi to connect to wifi

What happened instead?

Octopi did not connect to wifi

Did the same happen when running OctoPrint in safe mode?

Yes

Version of OctoPi

0.17.0

I have read the FAQ.

Please provide information about your chipset. Provide the output of:

lsusb -v

Note I am not sure this is an OctoPi issue, since we are based on Raspbian. Basing on source: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=251182

I'm not sure too, but octopi 0.16.0 worked fine so I thought it might have something to do with octopi 0.17.0. For now, I am using octopi 0.16.0 without any problem.

Its a Raspbian issue, see: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=246587

There is an issue with workaround solutions here: https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/3102
