Setting up WLAN for VIX on a Vu Uno

Hi

I have a Vu Uno. I am trying to get my box two work with a VIX image and WLAN. I have flashed the box with the VIX imange (tried oler versions as well) but the WIFI dongle is not being picked up.

I am not able to connect to a LAN to download any other drivers.

I know the dongle works as I can get it set up with the OpnePli image. Have to flash restart and WLAN option comes up. Straight out the box! The WLAN driver appears to be rt2800usb?

Does anyone have any suggestions? Its so simple on the OpenPli but I want the VIX image.

Is it possible to install the drivers from a usb stick? If so how? Should the VIX image recognise the dongle if the PLi does?

Most importantly where can I get the WLAN driver for the VU? Probably the rt2800usb.

Look forward to hearing back from you. Thank you for your help in advance.

Here are the Drivers You have requested for your VUUNO :respect-055:

they were obtained from the VIX feeds

Using the following command on my VUUNO

Code:

---

opkg download enigma2-plugin-drivers-network-usb-rt2800

---

Unzip and place enigma2-plugin-drivers-network-usb-rt2800_1.0-r1_all.ipk onto a usb stick pop the stick your uno and follow onscreen instructions

You are a star. Will give this a go. Many thanks

Hi Compass,

Installed the ipk, restarted the box with the wifi dongle in but still not getting the wlan. :001_07: It just shows lan. Any ideas?

Do you know of a VIX image which has the wlan driver already loaded?

Cant understand why this is such a pain when everything else work so well on the VIX.

Many thanks

I have posted on there as well, but no joy. Cant believe I am the first one to have this issue.

Did you Do a full Restart ?

Yes mate, did a full restart with the power button on the back.

Can you tell me what the rt2800usb is classed as. Is it a plugin, extension or driver?

Going to try different versions. If its worth doing that?

Or can I try anything else.

you asked for a driver post 2 gives as you requested

Appreciate that mate, but the subcategory in this and most other folders dont have a anything called Drivers which is why I asked the question. Sorry if it was a silly thing to ask.

as you have this problem with vix
and all is ok with pli
why struggle with vix
it might be a dongle driver issue with vix

have you tried ant othere images with it

Did you try the telnet command mentioned by compass?

opkg download enigma2-plugin-drivers-network-usb-rt2800

NMl

I Just followed the instruction below

Unzip and place enigma2-plugin-drivers-network-usb-rt2800_1.0-r1_all.ipk onto a usb stick pop the stick your uno and follow onscreen instructions

I thought the first part what where I said you would find the driver if you need it again in furure:blush5::blush5::blush5:

Well f*ck me. Just tried the VIX 2.4 build 165 (link below) is it works with the WLAN without any downloads or anything needed like the Pli image :respect-044:

Thank for your help guys.

Got connected to the plugins connection but dont see autoboutique on there. Does this mean the 2.4 has different listing for its plugins in the latest version 3 image? I tough the plugins just connect to a same server no matter which version of vix you use?

Kind regards

Amar786, here is VIX3.0 Build 806 with WLAN driver rt2800usb
installed for you

you will need to setup, as you would with any new VIX Build

hope it all goes well fella :D

Campass, hat off to you sir. That worked a treat. Very happy. :respect-055:

Pleased it worked out fine for you Amar :champion-018:

I have a VIX image with the rt2800usb drivers on it. Is it possible to ftp these from the box and then copy them into the new image? Does anyone know which folder the driver would be saved in?

Many thanks

Does anyone have the ipk driver "usbserial (1.0-r1) file for a Vu Uno. Would really appreciate it if you can upload this.
