    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

    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

    Hi Compass,

    Installed the ipk, restarted the box with the wifi dongle in but still not getting the wlan. 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

    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.

    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.

    and all is ok with pli
    why struggle with vix
    it might be a dongle driver issue with vix

    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

    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
