WaryPuppy 5.3 not detecting my TL-WN722N (Wireless N USB)

#1 Post by MAL22 »

I am currently trying to have Puppy detect my USB wireless adapter, I tried wrapping XPs drivers with no success so i'm running out of solutions. Help me!

Have you tried this? http://www.puppylinuxforum.org/thread-258.html
Might work. Reading around other forums it seems that particular model looks pretty unsupported unfortunately.

Well i also have a tl-wn422G that could maybe work. I'll go check that link.

EDIT: Great! I was happening to be looking for that driver without any luck. Thanks bud. you're a life savior. Going to install it now ;D

This is bad. WaryPuppy isn't listed as supporting that Wlan even with the firmware included. What am I going to do. If I remember... SlackoPuppy recognized it at first boot and right away.

See here http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... c293257d5a. Have you tried using the search features? I always use the second entry under SEARCHING in the "Beginners" section.
