Hello there, i’ve tried doing what you posted here following the exact same steps in this post and can’t get my dongle to work :S i have the exact same model.

Any ideas what might be missing here? My Wlan encription is WPA2 btw, not sure if that makes a difference here.

Thanks. FYI, this works with 2012-12-16-wheezy-raspbian too.

Alan,

I am going to install my Edimax later this week. What distro are you using on your pi? Mine is quite an early one and may be out of date by now.

Thanks,

Ed.

this dongle worked out of the box for me with no installs, just added my network to wifi config in the os gui
