Re: (UPDATE) Drivers for TL-WN725N V2 - 3.6.11+ -> 3.10.24+

Fri Dec 13, 2013 1:14 am

Many Thanks! This is my driver ,i wonna compiled it on raspbian wheezy 0925with kernel 3.6.11+
https://www.dropbox.com/s/zvrhhvdwuahb1 ... rce.tar.gz

This driver can be compiled and used on normal raspbmc. But raspbmc too consume system resources, so I want to use this drive on raspbian. A few days ago when I used rpi-update the kernel upgrade to 3.10.22 after raspbian, compile and install the driver, the driver fails, the hardware does not work properly, so this is what I want to use this driver in 3.6.11 + kernel reasons.

I'm trying to get it to work on my
Linux alarmpi 3.10.24-1-ARCH #1 PREEMPT Fri Dec 13 01:21:41 CST 2013 armv6l GNU/Linux

Everything works find until I enter:
sudo insmod /lib/modules/3.10.24-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8188eu.ko

I get:
insmod: ERROR: could not insert module /lib/modules/3.10.24-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8188eu.ko: Invalid module format

Any ideas please?

Yes, you need the driver compiled for ARCH. The drivers I compile are for Raspbian and will not work with Arch or any other version for that matter.

Hi there, MrEngman,

first off, thanks for the great jobs on the driver and crystal-clear setup instructions, made my day !

hopefully you'll appreciate the script below: it is a "download and install" script which I devised to automate the setup procedure you provide in the first post. The script is intended to run "as is" on most distribs and should be easy to maintain for upcoming upgrades. Works by selecting the proper tarball based on matching the target host uname with the specs in the comments header, then downloads and installs the driver and firmware, and checks that the kernel module was successfully loaded. Probably needs a bit more testing and improvements, but worked for me. Cheers.

Interesting. Looks like you understand scripting rather better than I do. I did something like that to install the rtl8188cus driver before it was included in Linux images for the Pi. You might be interested to see it. You will find it here.

Do you have any idea what's wrong? I had to upgrade to more recent kernel because I need newer version of raspistill.
Please post dmesg [run dmesg from bash]
This is my dmesg. Something is really wrong, it keeps repeating R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc, but I don't know what this means. I didn't install anything special, just some python libraries.

For some reason it keeps connectiong and disconnection every cca 20s and I'm sure with clean Raspberian Wheezy it worked fine. I'm using wicd network manager. This is what it looks like when I ping my RPi.

Do you have any idea what's wrong? I had to upgrade to more recent kernel because I need newer version of raspistill.
Please post dmesg [run dmesg from bash]
This is my dmesg. Something is really wrong, it keeps repeating R8188EU: ERROR indicate disassoc, but I don't know what this means. I didn't install anything special, just some python libraries.

Code: Select all

Disassociated because the information in the Supported Channels element is unacceptable
from this list of codes available here.

Not sure what this means but it could be that the channel list the wifi is set to use is not compatible with the list the wifi access point is using.

Command iwlist channel will usually list the channels the wifi can use. Maybe you need to check how your access point is set up regarding channels. Just a thought.

Anyone else any ideas?

Dear MrEngman,
I'd like to compile the driver by myself,
could you quickly explain howto do ?

Thanks

Mr. EngMan I cannot express the amount of appreciation that I am experiencing at the moment after so many hours of blood shot eye hunting for information to get this ridiculous wifi situation in the rear view mirror. Your posts have saved the day.

Now that it's working I have to move on to the next step which is getting the silly thing to keep the connection instead of dropping it and picking it back up every few seconds. Good grief!

Thanks a million times over!

And yes as the guy in Munich did, I am most definitely extending an invitation for drinks if ever you find yourself in the New York City area!

Thank you, appreciate your comments, makes all this worthwhile.

As far as your current issue I've no experience of it myself. I think, however, many would suggest it may be a power supply issue especially if the wifi adaptor is plugged directly in to the Pi, although I have my adaptor plugged directly into my Pi's USB port and have no problems. I would suggest trying a more powerful supply if you have one or perhaps plugging the wifi into a hub if you have one.

Hello

As everybody, many thanks to MrEngman for the permanent driver updates.
With his help, I have it working perfectly in 3.10.23+.

Unfortunately, I cannot upgrade to the 3.10.24+ version.

After a dist-upgrade, the uname -a gave this:
Linux raspberry-1 3.10.24+ #614 PREEMPT Thu Dec 19 20:38:42 GMT 2013 armv6l GNU/Linux

I still saw the Realtek entry in lsusb, but the driver was not visible in lsmod anymore. Fair enough.
I restarted the driver install procedure from scratch (rm all 8188 files in /home/pi and /lib/firmware, wget 8188eu-20131209.tar.gz, tar, cp to /lib/firmware)...
Install is ok (or seems to be) but insmod gives an error (same for modprobe):

pi@raspberry-1 ~ $ sudo install -p -m 644 8188eu.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless

sudo modprobe 8188eu
ERROR: could not insert '8188eu': Exec format error


I did the rpi-update to be sure and restarted the procedure. Same issue.

I checked the files I'm using:

Any idea?

As everybody, many thanks to MrEngman for the permanent driver updates.
With his help, I have it working perfectly in 3.10.23+.

Unfortunately, I cannot upgrade to the 3.10.24+ version.

After a dist-upgrade, the uname -a gave this:

Hi jmn,

3.10.24+ #614 requires a new version of the driver.

Take a look here and select the right version for 3.10.24+ #614 - 8188eu-20131219.tar.gz

If you get this type of error again just take a look at the link and with any luck you will find an update.

Thanks for the reply.

Sorry, I actually used your page but I read it probably too fast, and thought the date portion for #614 was still the same than for #608 and #610...
I missed the change from 20131209 to 20131219

Everything's allright now
Thanks a lot - and sorry again

No problem. Good to hear your wifi is OK again.

Hello
Just the same error than me:
you use the 8188eu-20131209 version and not the 8188eu-20131219.
Redo with this one and it should be ok.

Hi otiumh,

I think jmn is probably correct. Check the version of 3.10.24+ you have. Use the command uname -a and I think it will show

Code: Select all

Linux raspberrypi 3.10.24+ #614 PREEMPT Thu Dec 19 20:38:42 GMT 2013 armv6l GNU/Linux
3.10.24+ #614 uses driver 8188eu-20131219.tar.gz

Updated the OP to make the change in date code more obvious for 3.10.24 #614 and added some additional instructions to determine the Linux version so the correct driver is used (I hope :) )

Re: (UPDATE) Drivers for TL-WN725N V2 - 3.6.11+ -> 3.10.24+

Sun Dec 22, 2013 6:10 pm

Hello,

I am trying to install a TL WN725N on my new raspberry Pi.
I am in 3.6.11 #538 with a WN725N 0bda:8179.

I have installed 8188eu from 8188eu-20130830.tar.gz.

I can see wifi networks, and my Box, can connect but is not able to have an IP address. I tried with fixed IP, does not work. I have installed Wicd to help the management of wifi and network, no improvement.
Any clue ?

I would like to have confirmation for file: rtl8188eufw.bin is this file required for my version? It is not provided in the tar.gz file: 8188eu-20130830.tar.gz ...
Should I use one ? which one ? I tried to install the one from 20131113 with no success.

Thanks!
