I didn't see a discussion group for the old Pine64, just the Pine64+ so the moderator will probably need to move it.  I just purchased and installed the Pine wifi card for my board.  It didn't have any instructions or ducumentation included so I assumed the installation would be automatic.  Not so.  The system doesn't appear to recognize the board...at least in the configuration.   I'm not sure if drivers need to be installed or updated, etc.  If been running on ethernet for some time and the systems been running pretty good...although slow but wireless would be nice. If I run iwconfig I get this:

dan@pine64:~$ sudo iwconfig
[sudo] password for dan: 
eth0      no wireless extensions.

lo        no wireless extensions.

wlan0     unassociated  Nickname:"<WIFI@REALTEK>"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency=2.412 GHz  Access Point: Not-Associated   
          Sensitivity:0/0  
          Retry:off   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off

          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

so it appears the system sees is but that's about it  Anybody know what's happening?

If you connect properly, should just recognize and work
Thanks
