Possible reason - if interested...(So I have forced wicd on you.) https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu/issues/197 You may need to blacklist or remove any half working module if it exists. See wiki on howto blacklist. After wifi device is inserted I run $ tce-load -i 8188eu $ sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/dbus start $ sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/wicd start Click on the wicd icon, and assuming you see your router name, click on properties and pulldown and choose WPA 1/2 (PASSPHRASE) assuming you use wpa2, input your passphrase then click Ok. Next click connect. Optional--Top right corner is a triangle pointing down symbol - Preferences -> advanced settings you may like to click dBm to get dBm instead of % connection strength? I prefer to un-tick show never connections. YMMV If your device works for you, consider reading wicd info on adding some stuff to your backup, and adding this TCZ to your current boot list. Good Luck Testing Info ##### COPYING file is for module license = GPL v2 Real*txt is the license for the firmware file and names the author Credits to coreplayer2 and bmarkus for supplying the fw license that I have copied over.
