Cheers

it is part of xbian-package-kernel=1.3-6.3a including firmware (not tested as we don't have this type of dongle). you need to install xbian-package-initramfs-tools=1.3.2-1e together with it.

you can install them manually with dpkg and wget as few times already posted in this thread. you will find the .debs here:

http://xbian.brantje.com/pool/staging/main/x/

or you can add staging repo as source for apt. and then just upgrade (http://forum.xbian.org/thread-1861.html) ((just STAGING, don't add devel))

oh and you will also need xbian-update=1.0.2-12d
it is also the same location

Thanks bcre3306, victmo and mk01 for the help.
Setting the SSID via SSH fixed my issue.

RE: TP-Link TL-WN725N not recognized - mk01 - 22nd Dec, 2013 10:02 AM

can you post output of "iwlist scanning" ?

some cards have different output, probably the config tool can't parse it properly. if you send output, we can adapt.

Hi,
Is it possible to get this package and how ?
After I type apt-get install xbian-package-config-shell it is written that I have the newest version (2.1.6-53 ?)

Generally I have w problem with connecting to my wireless network. I manually set up SSID and WPA via SSH, as victmo and jjc advised. Now connection status is UP, wifi module is blinking, but still a cannot connect to my router. Tried DHCP and static IP. I use d-link dir-635, WPA2 (Auto Mode WPA/WPA2); xbian 1.0 beta 2, clean install with update &upgrade.TL-WN725N ver2.0. Any ideas how to fix it ?
thanks in advance

RE: TP-Link TL-WN725N not recognized - mk01 - 8th Jan, 2014 12:02 AM

RFKILL means that the card has "switch" control as poweroff/on (as for instance WiFi or Bluetooth cards in notebooks have switches to power them up/down).

a solution is to install small rfkill control util "rfkill" and then
Code:
sudo -i
apt-get install rfkill
rfkill list
…
rfkill unblock XYZ


RE: TP-Link TL-WN725N not recognized - koper89 - 18th Jan, 2014 08:15 AM

Hi guys,
I have also a problem with this card, after fresh install of xbian my wlan card is "found" i think but when I try scanning, It just show empty pop up with no wifi's on it. Could you tell me how can I fix it? I read this topic but here's so many solutions that i don't know which one to choose ....

EDIT: FIXED, by manualy typing ssid, wep pass, and others in SSH

(5th May, 2013 12:37 AM)bergfruehling Wrote:  Hi,

I bought a TP-Link TL-WN725N (listed on the supported hardware page in the wiki) for my RPi, but it is does not work. It is plugged into a powered usb hub (when I plugged it directly into the Pi, it restarted immediately, probably a power issue).

lsusb lists it as
Bus 001 Device 008: ID 0bda:8179 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.

after plugging it in, dmesg says
[ 1853.301279] usb 1-1.3.7: USB disconnect, device number 7
[ 1855.843529] usb 1-1.3.7: new high-speed USB device number 8 using dwc_otg

No modules are loaded automatically. I tried "modprobe 8192cu", but the result of replugging the stick was the same according to dmesg. There is no wifi device listed by ifconfig, nor by xbian-config. I use the lastest xbian with kernel 3.6.11+.

Any suggestions?

Cheers,
Henning

In the starting, It gave me some issues, however now, same adapter and it works with any Raspberry Pi distribution out of the box.
