usb wifi gateway not found

Post#1 by gray_penguin » 25 Sep 2017, 22:27

I have been trying to install 4.5 on a system with a usb wifi. On setup it detects the wifi and gives me a list of wifi connections. every thing loads up, and I am able to connect to my remote config file on a cloud server. But, when it fires up after install it gives me a gateway not found error. I have tried to use dhcp and manual setups but get the same thing every time.

Any idea why this is happening? I cant make out the model of wifi usb it is, all I can read is cisco. Is there a recommended usb wifi dongle to use?

Thanks,
William

Hi Wiliam,

Please do as follows:
a) use wifi+dhcp option during installation
b) enable debug mode in the wizard
c) after rebooot (when wifi fails to connect) please plug LAN cable and send generated report to support@porteus-kiosk.org

Thank you.
Please add [Solved] to your thread title if the solution was found.
