EDIMAX EW-7611ULB WiFi issues on NVIDIA Jetson Nano

Has anyone been able to get the EDIMAX EW-7611ULB 2 in 1 USB module working on a NVIDIA Jetson Nano? I have been fighting this for two days now. The Bluetooth appears to be working but I have no WLAN0.

When I check the system with - lsusb I see the Edimax device in the system.

If I run however a lshw -C network I have not WLAN0 listed. I also have no wireless listed under - System Network Connections.

I have scoured the internet and have not found any solution. Should I return this to SparkFun and try a different device?

Are you using our [kit? The SD card should have had the driver pre-installed to work out of the box.

Otherwise, you have two options:

  • - Download and use our [[image](https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/assembly-guide-for-sparkfun-jetbot-ai-kit/5-software-setup-guide-from-nvidia) (recommended)
  • - Install the driver yourself from this [[GitHub repo](https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723bu) (make sure to read instructions)

    Santa,

    Thank you for the reply. I will check out both links you have sent me.

    Did you ever solve this issue? I am having issues getting the github drivers to make.

    Unfortunately, we cannot help you with building the drivers from the GitHub repository, other than following the directions (what we did). That being said, it would probably be easiest to just use our pre-configured image; it is known to work with the USB WiFi adapter we sell.
