Hi Tracer5,
wicd-curses shows “wlan0” in the preferences page as default.

Hi Lan,
Please consider editing the /etc/network/interfaces file:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
#auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-essid “YOUR_ESSID”
wireless-mode managed
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
Please note that ifup will refuse to bring up an interface unless “allow-hotplug wlan0” is set.
Hi Ronnicek,
root@volumio:~# modprobe rtl8192cu
FATAL: Module rtl8192cu not found.

Hi Tracer5,
That config of “/etc/network/interfaces” did not appear to make any difference.
[code]root@volumio:~# ifup wlan0
wlan0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
Error for wireless request “Set Mode” (8B06) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; No such device.
Error for wireless request “Set ESSID” (8B1A) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; No such device.

Cannot find device “wlan0”
Bind socket to interface: No such device
Failed to bring up wlan0.[/code]
As I have previously mentioned, it lookes like the driver∕device∕something is not being correctly loaded/installed for wlan0.

Hi Ronnicek,
Thanks for the tips. Unfortunatly all the information relating to MrEngamn’s work is old and is only relevent to earlier versions of the PI. He stopped his work when the PI started using the “correct” drivers around September 2012. His scripts do not run on current OS versions as he has a version check on them.
Any other ideas ?
Thanks
Ian
Hi!
I found this blog and for him it´s running out of box, so let’s see if he will answer with some good hint
