Wifi problem - Ralink MT7601U dongle

Postby goldenyears » 25 Apr 2016, 22:14

Hi all,

I am having trouble setting up wifi on my pi using the runeaudio img file provided by iqaudio. It isn't showing up under the network section using the runeaudio UI - only ETHO. Everything is working great using a wired connection but I really need to get the wifi working as my main system is far from the router.

May I add that I am a complete novice and am trying to learn by reading various posts on this forum. I have installed putty.exe on my computer and using the lsusb command the dongle is showing.

I've tried to copy the debug info but it exceeds the character limit - is there any particular part that would be useful to diagnose the problem?

Thanks in advance,

Al

Thanks again for your reply Frank. So would the simplest solution be to buy another dongle? If so what would be the best option?

If I decided to download the new image file would I then download the bin file using the complete command directly onto the pi using ssh command?

Thanks Frank, I think I'll just buy the dongle you recommended as I'm not confident playing around with commands.

Is it easy to configure the iqaudio dac once I install the new image file?
