Not all hubs deliver the power they claim to deliver. You will know if your hub is delivering enough power if you test the actual power on the Pi with a multimeter between TP1 and TP2. It has to be between 4.75 and 5.25. Another possibility is a bad cable, or loose USB socket. My Pi had lots of tro...

1. Fresh Image 2. pacman Syu 3. sync 4. reboot 5. pacman -S dkms-8192cu 6. sync 7. reboot 8. wifi-menu 9. systemctl disable netctl-ifplugd@eth0 10. systemctl enable netctl-auto@wlan0 6 and 7 might not be necessary No luck. Step 8 returns: Scanning for networks... failed No networks found I did some...

As sdjf said, fully update, sync and reboot, then pacman -S dkms-8192cu This will add driver, you will see it build Use wifi-menu, it scans, connects, and creates a netctl profile You might have to remove eth0 profile to avoid routing problems So are you saying it should work like this? 1.

If you have a model A or B the WiFi Adaptor may have lack of current, it may be better to use a Mains Powered USB Hub for peripherals. I have a powered hub which can give 3.5 A. I think that should do. Still the light goes off after 5-10min. I think I might just return the dongle and get another on...

OK. Here is some more info: lsusb bus 001 Device 009: ID 0bda:8176 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188CUS 802.11n WLAN Adapter lsmod 8192cu 545733 0 So this seems all correct and the way it is expected. Arch Linux Used for MinePeon: Arch Linux 3.10.33-1-ARCH (tty1) Now after trying the hints below I...

OK thanks for trying to help. I will post the output of the lsusb tonight. I might cross post to the MinePeon forum and try to find out what Kernel exactly it is. Oh and sorry for the typo in the title.

I am a real linx noob and only started to use it here an there a while ago.

Dear Pi Friends I am having a really hard time getting my EDUP EP-N8508GS (rtl8188cus chipset) WiFi Dongle to work together with MinePeon Image which I believe is an Arch-Linux based image. I have invested hours searching an trying different things I have found in the internet. However, some people ...
