Hello there
I learned that I bought a wireless card that is not supported by the kernel. The kernel provided by Intel only Intel iwlwifi to support wireless drivers. First I bought 4965 model WiFi wireless card and but kernel drivers does not support this. Galileo now ubilinux running does. The official distribution provided by Intel were running when I could not connect the device to a network. I'm using the Intel WiFi Link 5100 card from the laptop. I'm using an antenna which is sold seperatly for routers. Online stores u.fl IPX to RP-SMA 'or SMA female adapter cable and an associated antenna I've ordered. The items ordered from Turkey because I live in Turkey and the original language of this protip in Turkish which is available on my blog. Edit interface for the WiFi card and do not bother to edit the interfaces files in a network folder is supposed to. This is the file we want to connect into the network by entering the SSID and passphrase information card will allow you to connect to the network automatically when starting.
Installation;
Galileo's terminal 3.5mm jack input, I get the well located UART ports.
- First, connect to the internet via the card's Ethernet port to add existing drive. Debian iwlwifi the driver for after gaining root privileges on the system as described in the setup page apt-get update && apt-get install firmware-iwlwifi to install the command root iwlwifi drivers.
- modprobe -r iwlwif of; modprobe iwlwifi to allow the installation of the command module iwlwifi
- firmware files to / lib / firmware folder is located in. ls can see the driver files in a folder with the command. Despite taking place in 4965 here but I also do not connect these cards to the same operations 4965 to the network.
- Now we need to add wireless LAN networking interfaces file. Your favorite text editor (I use nano) network interfaces need to edit the file;
- nano / etc / network / interfaces command, we add the following lines to the file opened.
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid agadi
wpa-psk password
"agadi" is your wi-fi network ssid. Replace your ssid with it.
"password" is your wi-fi network passpharse. Replace your network password with it.
2. allows to automatically launch at startup auto wlan0 interface. the name of the network you want to connect with the password to change the password again was also part of the network. Abbreviations; iface (interface), wlan0 (wireless lan0 if two module we wanted to connect to the network need to define the wlan1 interface for it), iNet (interface TCP / IP using the protocol in), DHCP (dynamically host controller protocol - dynamically protocol assigns IP device. This job It made by a modem/router.)
3. Insert the card and then shutdown -r -t 3 now restart command.
After Galileo started lspci make sure the device using the command listed.
ifconfig the script and whether you can control the wireless configuration.
Knowledge of other card installed in one of the places you also underlined the Galileo local IP address assigned to the card via the WLAN network.
