WiFi setup for official dongle in Jessie Lite

[dobra-dobra]

I have a RPi model A running headless Raspbian Jessie Lite with recent actualizations. I configured WiFi by adding following lines to /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf file:

Code: Select all

network={
    ssid="testing"
    psk="testingPassword"
}

All my cheap, Chinese WiFi dongles can connect to my network, but that is not the case for official RPi dongle with BCM chip. Dongle is not faulty, as it does work in my other Pi when WiFi was configured using GUI application, but it does not connect from Raspbian Lite when configured from command line. Is there any difference in setup for this particular dongle? Or maybe driver is missing? But it would be rather confusing if that will be the case when cheap dongles run just out of the box.

Edit
I found this GitHub issue about problems with Broadcom dongle on Jessie Lite, but still there is no solution:
