First of all, I'm aware that there's no driver yet for the internal wifi / bluetooth device. I've been using a combination of USB-A to USB-C adapters to do all manner of things from usb tethering off my phone, utilizing a USB-A wifi adapter, and using a USB to ethernet adapter. While all of these options previously worked with the danctnix installation, none of them appear to be functioning with Mobian.
I did have to use the USB to ethernet adapter with the danctnix installation first in order to update the OS before the USB wifi adapter would function.. and I figure I might need to do something similar with the mobian install.. but I've run into a bit of an issue.
At some point, the USB tethering on my phone just.. decided to stop working with things (I think that's a phone thing, though.) The USB ethernet adapter worked with danctnix and the USB wifi adapter worked once I upgraded the device.. but after installing U-Boot and Mobian according to the instructions, while the operating system appears to function, I cannot get any level of network connectivity to hopefully get my wifi adapter functioning.
Interestingly, both the USB to ethernet adapter and the USB wifi adapter show up under `lsusb` and there's a "usb0" connection that shows as "unavailable" when running `nmcli`, but I'm at a bit of a loss at this point for what to do now.
Does anyone have any ideas about how I might go about getting some kind of network connectivity on the device?
