Hi there! I bought a barely-used 2022 Organelle S and the seller has assured me the included wi-fi dongle worked fine for him. Even after successfully flashing the OS to 4.1 on the SD card just now, the following happens:
I go to Settings > WiFi Setup
I click Start AP
The top part of the screen says “Connected AP Mode” for a split second, then goes back to saying “Not Connected.”
Furthermore, the dongle’s not detected when I plug it into my Mac or PC.
Grateful in advance for any help/guidance! Thank you
It could depend on the brand of Wi-Fi dongle. I had a realtek and went to their website. It took me a while to get it to work. Not only that, all the drivers I could find were older so I had to check on my wife’s 2012 MacBook running high sierra.
Bump! I’m sorry to be a pest about this, but I’m so excited about the possibilities of this gizmo and I’d really like to get it working. @oweno@chrisk is there a better channel than this forum in which I can troubleshoot this? Thank you regardless for your time
@chrisk
The WiFi adapter seemingly doesn’t work with with either USB port. I get the same issue as I initially cited–I try to start AP mode, the screen says “Connected AP Mode” for a split second and then says “Not connected.”
The USB thumb drive I’ve been “manually” installing patches to functions just fine with both USB ports.
I suppose I should buy a fresh wi-fi adapter from y’all?
Hey @chrisk, I’m having a similar issue on my Organelle M. Tried all the troubleshooting methods I found across the forum and have narrowed it down to the wifi dongle.
Totally love you guys and happy to send you the cash, but I’m wondering if there’s any way to get this without paying $20+ in shipping?
Sorry to be a pain in the ass. These are the shipping options I’m seeing on your shop. I live in Philly, in case that matters.
