1. Check the system kernel version, Uname-r v3.0 version of this network card does not support more than 4.0 of the kernel (customer service personnel, not verified)
2., then go to the official website to download the corresponding driver, http://www.tenda.com.cn/product/download/W311M.html, download the corresponding driver
3. Then it is decompression, and then it is best to make uninstall and Modprobe-r mt7601u operation, because some version comes with a driver, not easy to use, which mt7601u is the corresponding module,
After this source code is compiled, that is, make install after making, this process will be error, reason does not provide the tool, need to install, build-essential not provide, need to install, command as follows
: sudo apt-get make build-essential, and then you can modprobe Mt760usta This operation, note here is Mt7601usta and above the mt7601u is not the same, the above is the system comes with, the following is compiled
If the kernel is replaced, make uninstall operation is required, then make clean, then recompile the installation
4. Now start to view IP a This situation, in order to connect the wireless network, first to activate the network card: IP link set wlan0 up, and then use the Wap_supplicant this tool, Sir into a configuration file, using the tool wpa_passphrase [SSID] [password ]>wpa_supplicant.conf
Then copy it to the/etc/wpa_supplicant/folder below and use the command:
Wpa_supplicant-b-dwext-iwlan0-c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
You can start networking.
5. To automatically connect when the system restarts, you need to change the configuration file/etc/network/interface
At the bottom, add:
Auto Eth1
Iface eth1 inet Static
Address 192.168.1.100
Netmask 255.255.255.0
Wireless-essid HomeNet
Pre-up Wpa_supplicant-b-dwext-ieth1-c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
Post-down Killall-q Wpa_supplicant
This automatically restarts after the wireless network can be connected to obtain a static IP, if you get dynamic IP, you can change the above 2 lines to:
Auto Eth1
Iface eth1 inet DHCP
If IP is not available, it is best to configure DNS:
That is, add dnsname-servers 8.8.8.8 192.168.1.1 at the back.
