    This is actually a great sign...this means it should work!!! Reboot and look for wireless under network


    Under connections in LibreELEC settings right??

    Under network you should have "wireless networks" selecion...disable it then enable it and you shoiuld have neraby wireless networks available under "connections"

    Oh, I missed that you made it work, I'm glad to help...now we wait to see if we get bluetooth support as well...this box only has 2 USB connectors, hate to loose one to the airmouse IR receiver...

    I did have it working. I then did a reboot now no wireless networks are showing under connections or network. That sucks after all your work and help.

    Now I have it back up again.
    Any idea how to make it work every reboot without ash?

    Nope it won't pick up the wireless adapter on reboot.

    It happens every time with me if I disconnect the Ethernet.
    If I have Ethernet plugged in then it will bring up the wireless networks and I just have to uncheck wireless and re connect.

    Not with me...I disconnected the Ethernet, even dsabled it and wireless option is stil availble after reboots or power offs...I only need to deactivate/reactivate to get the availbale wifi networks...

    I have been trying to make the kernel module for Aigaile chips load automatically but unfortunately I couldn't make it. The only thing I achieved is an easier hack:

    • first install this devel version - when updating from 7.0.2.009 you don't need a device tree: LibreELEC-S905.aarch64-7.0-devel-20161116235711-r23437-g73c3cef.img.gz
    • if you have the previous "hack" in autostart.sh, delete it - either the whole file or lines with the hack only
    • in Configuration folder (/storage/.config over SSH) enter modules-load.d directory and create file named wifi.conf and content cfg80211_qca. A SSH one-liner for this is echo cfg80211_qca > /storage/.config/modules-load.d/wifi.conf
    • reboot


    Please report if WiFi works "automatically" with this version and after following these steps.

    Just to clarify @kazaq here is what I did:

    1) Updated to the latest devel LibreELEC-S905.aarch64-7.0-devel-20161116235711-r23437-g73c3cef.img.gz
    2) Created a file named wifi.conf with the following contents:

    Code
    [code]
cfg80211_qca


    [/code]
    3) Put this wifi.conf file in the modules-load.d directory .
    4) Ran the following command via ssh putty:

    Code
    [code]
echo cfg80211_qca > /storage/.config/modules-load.d/wifi.conf


    [/code]
    5) Rebooted.

    Once I did that I got the wireless networks tab coming up under network. The picture is a screenshot:

    However, even if I deactivate and reactivate the wireless networks, I still don't get any wireless connections. Like in the screenshot below:

    Hope this helps.
