I got Xbian installed on raspberry pi, v 3.10.12+ #61

Ok - try this.

Exit out of XBMC to a promt. Sign in xbian pwd raspberry.
From the command prompt type xbian-config

2) Settings, 3) Network and follow the instructions there.

What release are you on?

I think you may need to upgrade your system.

V 1.2beta installed one today. the latest from Xbian site.

I also tested Raspbmc today, and it was same problem. Sad


RE: Wifi not working - IriDium - 7th May, 2014 05:12 PM

Can you run sudo xbian-apt-show-versions |grep -i kernel

If the release is less than 1.3-6 you will need to either upgrade or apply this Fix

I had lower kernel. I have update it. what now? I can connect my wifi and use it?

Thanks man for helping mee out of this problem


RE: Wifi not working - IriDium - 7th May, 2014 07:45 PM

Follow the previous instructions and it should work - it may automatically work, when the RPi is rebooted.


RE: Wifi not working - kerimo666 - 7th May, 2014 08:45 PM
