Hi all,
a few mouth ago I installed LibreELEC on a rPi2 and connected a USB wifi adapter (EDIMAX EW-7612UAN Version 2) with it to enable a access point. I used it to watch movies on a tablet connected with the access point on vacation. Everything worked with a charm.
Now approximately a half year later I want to do the same again but either openELEC nor libreELEC (wich is my favorite) works. When I enable the AP option in the libreELEC settings I see the progress circle and after a few seconds the option is still disabled.
I tested rPi2 and 3 (buid in wifi works but is to slow for hi res videos) with LibreELEC 8.2.3, the latest 9.0 milhouse build and with openELEC 7.01 and 8.0.4. I cannot enable the AP for the edimax usb dongle.
Can anybody help me? Anybody with the same problem? Is there a "hidden" configuration wich I have to edit? ...?
Dongle:
Edimax EW-7612UAN V2 300 Mbit: Amazon.de: Computer & Zubehör
Kind regards,
John
Edit:
Normal usage like internet connection / connection to an existing wifi network with the dongle works fine.
