Hi All,

I got RTL8188EUS driver (RTL8188EUS_linux_v4.3.0.9_15178.20150907 ) form WIFI Vendor. I can make driver and insert driver on Android 5.1. It also works on Android 4.3.  There have same driver logs when insmod and turn wifi on.  But when i try to use "iwlist" or "iwconfig" command on Android, i always got "wlan0     no wireless extensions." .

How to reslove these issues ? It cause by wpa_supplicat ?

Thanks!

David Wu

There is a document from Realtek called Realtek Wi-Fi SDK for Android xxxx (where xxxx is the Android version). It is talking about how to setup wifi in Android in very details. You can follow the document to build the driver and setup the Android.

You should enable CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT=y in your kernel defconfig file.

Hi Fabio,

 Thanks for your reply . But CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT already set on my config files, And i can get  wext-compat.o file after make image...

 I try to add some logs on wext-compat.c, and never get these logs when i try to use iwlist or iwconfig.  Does this cause by wifi driver ?

Thanks,

David Wu
