Repetier Server on Raspberry Pi 1 with Edimax Wifi Stick
Hello,
ia am trying to use the Server on an Raspberry Pi 1 with an Edimax Wifi Stick.
In the Settings Menu is under Wifi only the message "This installation does not support Wifi configuration" or sometimes there is just the message that no Wlan Adapter installed.
By typing lsusb i get this result:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 7392:7811 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd EW-7811Un 802.11n Wireless Adapter [Realtek RTL8188CUS]
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp. SMSC9512/9514 Fast Ethernet Adapter
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9512 Standard Microsystems Corp. SMC9512/9514 USB Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
By typing dmesg i get this for about 200 times:
[ 551.945773] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready
Can anyone tell me what to do???
best regards
Iksi

should show the state. I have one stick that works not well with our solution a sit can not scan networks and have one connection. Not sure whcih type that was. Aynhow, better first check if linux has it working or not and then see what is wrong.
Also what is response on
sudo ifconfig | grep wlan0
the answer is used to determine if you have wlan. Maybe it appears as wlan1 instead, then you need to change WLAN in /usr/local/Repetier-Setup/etc/server.conf
lo no wireless extensions.
wlan0 unassociated Nickname:"<WIFI@REALTEK>"
Mode:Managed Frequency=2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated
Sensitivity:0/0
Retry:off RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
pi@FelixWhite:~ $ sudo ifconfig | grep wlan0
wlan0: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
would be what you need so that the network appears.
Please try connecting manually.
sudo service RepetierServer stop
sudo /usr/local/Repetier-Setup/bin/manageWifiAccess connectPW ssid password
sudo service RepetierServer start
And see if that works. I guess once you have a connection it also appears as interface.
