wlan0 is missing. What should I do to make wifi works?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Juanito:
That does not seem to be listed here:

http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/wiki:list_of_supported_wifi_devices

..but I'd guess that if you load the firmware-rtlwifi extension before the wifi extension, things might work.

Edit: After loading firmware-rtlwifi and then wifi, what does "dmesg | tail -20" show?

coreplayer2:
I suspect this device is supported by the rtl8192se kernel module
despite  it slightly different model number

According to someone here
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1834478&page=2
the rtl8192se.ko works apparently
maybe this device will need a proprietary driver..?  there is one given at the above link whether it will build in 3.16.6 is another matter.

either firmware-rtl8192ce_se_de.tcz or firmware-rtlwifi.tcz
and
wireless-3.16.6-tinycore.tcz

are worth a try

Thank you! :D



Putting firmware-rtl8192ce_se_de.tcz and wireless-3.16.6-tinycore.tcz in onBoot list made it!



So the problem was I need to get the driver for my card manually and I didn't know I would need that.
Next time if I got a similar problem that nobody seems to experiencing I could try find a driver for devices I have. :)

Juanito:
It would be good if you could submit the details of your hardware requested in the wiki wifi link above so that others can profit from your findings  :)
