Using wifi Dongle on Leopard DM365

Using wifi Dongle on Leopard DM365

  • Hi,

     

    I was just trying to get the wifi connectivity up and working on my Leopard DM365 board. I saw in the below link that one of the Belkin wifi dongle is supported and tested (please see the link below)

    https://www.ridgerun.com/developer/wiki/index.php/How_to_integrate_a_Wifi_Dongle_with_the_LeopardBoard

    I tried to follow the steps but i see that the dongle is not been detected. 

    Any input would be really helpful.

     

    Regards,

  • Did you configure your hw to be in USB host mode of operation?

  • Hi Todd,

    I enabled the USB host mode as explained in the link, but still it is not working. below is the message gets printed when i plug in the USB Wifi dongle:

    usb 1-1: USB disconnect, address 3

    usb 1-1: new high speed USB device using musb_hdrc and address 4

    usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

    if i do iwconfig i get:

    lo        no wirnet eth0: DaVinci EMAC: ioctl not supported

    eless extensions.

    eth0      no wireless extensions.

    can you please point out what is the mistake i may be doing. it would be really helpful.

  • Sounds like the kernel drivers you need are being built.  Please post your SDK configuration file

    $DEVDIR/bsp/mach/bspconfig

    so I can review your kernel configuration.
