[EEEBOX-B202] testings

[DiliaK]

Hello,

Last version in tests in EEEBOX B202.
Seems to work well.

But, the integrated wifi card is not functionnal. Impossible to create SSID.
AzureWave seems based with a RT2700E.

So : Deassembling of eeebox, wifi card suppressed.

Testing wifi with a Wi-pi (USB WIFI dongle for Raspberry) from Element14.
Based on a ralink RT5370. (lsusb called)

Seems to work well and more : multi SSID working too.
Written in console “Unknown model” but don’t worry : Wifi is fully functionnal.

nice!
do you have a link for the wifi dongle you purchased? i think lot of people may be interested.
(did you have to install a driver to make it work though?)

Hello,
Project terminated and operationnal.

I can tell you, nothing to compare with my old Alix board.

I bought a mini PCI-Express AzureWave AW-NE772 with Atheros chipset (A B G N) and it seems to work well. Announced 2.4 gHz and 5gHz (don’t tested yet).

I installed a plug for a second antenna and installed 2 6db antennas on it.
