Cant make WiFi working on ROCK64.

rock64@rock64:~$ modprobe 8188eu
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert '8188eu': Operation not permitted
rock64@rock64:~$ sudo modprobe 8188eu
[sudo] password for rock64:
rock64@rock64:~$

So, you've figured out that "sudo" was required ...

Now, since driver is loaded, you should see the "wlan0" while doing "ifconfig",  right ?

Then, you can use "nmtui" to connect to your router AP...

Hi martinayotte,

Thanks again.

Unfortunately, things are not as simple as they should be.

Take a look:

rock64@rock64:~$ find /lib/modules -name "*8188*ko"
/lib/modules/4.4.77-rockchip-ayufan-136/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rockchip_wlan/rtl8188fu/8188fu.ko
/lib/modules/4.4.77-rockchip-ayufan-136/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rockchip_wlan/rtl8188eu/8188eu.ko

rock64@rock64:~$ sudo modprobe 8188eu

rock64@rock64:~$ iwconfig
lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

---------------

wlan0 or whatever was not recognized.

If you or someone else have another idea I would like very much to know.

Thanks,
