I should have said that this is a older pi zero:

pi@pi0:~/bin $ ./pirevcode.sh
Code	Model	Proc	Rev	RAM	Manufacturer
900092	Zero	BCM2835	1.2	512MB	Sony UK

uname -a says:

I looked at your download site http://downloads.fars-robotics.net/wifi ... u-drivers/ for "8188eu-5.4.51-v6l-1333.tar.gz", but no such file exists. The following are there, though:

8188eu-5.4.51-1333.tar.gz
8188eu-5.4.51-v7-1333.tar.gz
8188eu-5.4.51-v7l-1333.tar.gz
8188eu-5.4.51-v8-1333.tar.gz
Can I use the one with no "v" qualifier?

Use the driver that matches the kernel version from command uname -a. It does not show -v6l, just 5.4.51+ #1333 so you don't need a driver file that includes -v6l.

In your case use 8188eu-5.4.51-1333.tar.gz.

EDIT: If you use my install-wifi script it will automatically select the right driver file.

I hadn't looked at the output of "uname -a" on any of my pi's recently. I saw the "armv6l" near the end of the output, and mistakenly assumed that was the v6 you were looking for. If I do a "uname -l" on my pi4, I clearly see you're looking for a modifier in the front, next to the kernel, in that case "v7l":

Code: Select all

pi@pi4:~ $ uname -a
Linux pi4 5.4.51-v7l+ #1333 SMP Mon Aug 10 16:51:40 BST 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux

The file "8188eu-5.4.51-1333.tar.gz" worked fine, thank you for steering me straight.
