Dropout Issue with r8188eu dongles #2

Closed shantanoo-desai closed 7 years ago

shantanoo-desai commented 7 years ago

Cannot reach nodes with r8188eu dongles.

Check with Adafruit by adding a .conf file for r8188eu:

sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/r8188eu.conf

options r8188eu rtw_power_mgnt=0 rtw_enusbss=1 rtw_ips_mode=1 

comment out blacklist rtl8188eu from /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-rtl81xxxu.conf

Note

There is no round about to this. Closing this Issue since the firmware isn't functioning at all in Ad-Hoc Mode.
