Install WiFi

After buying another WiFi USB I had to install the correct drivers. TP-Link only had 2 year old beta drivers for TL-WN823N. Installing them failed multiple times.

I then found “Install-WiFi” which installed the correct drivers without any input.

Download, make executeable, execute

wget downloads.fars-robotics.net/wifi-drivers/install-wifi -O /usr/bin/install-wifi
chmod +x /usr/bin/install-wifi
/usr/bin/install-wifi

Example

#wget http://downloads.fars-robotics.net/wifi-drivers/install-wifi -O /usr/bin/install-wifi
#chmod +x /usr/bin/install-wifi
#install-wifi
