Luckily this wasn't its primary use case so I'll just have to remember not to switch it into the Pi.

If I need to use a dongle I'll keep my eyes open for a 5Ghz one with supported chipset and drivers.

Bought a new wireless dongle (TP-LINK Archer T1U) the other day for another project and just thought I'd give it a go with my Pi and LibreELEC. There doesn't seem to be a driver available for it though.

Code

rpi-lounge:~ # lsusb

journalctl -k output is here: IPAd

I did a little bit of research and it seems that TP-LINK have a linux driver but only for kernel versions 2.6-3.16 (http://www.tp-link.com/en/download/Arche...l#Driver). Is there anything that can be done to get this available in LibreELEC?

I'm only checking on the off chance that I end up thinking about reusing this dongle at some point in the future.

Thanks in advance.
