I'm testing the UDOO Quad with Arch Linux, I noticed that the wifi connection is unstable, I have a ssh session to the wifi port and from time to time it freezes and eventually disconnects. Code: $ uname -a Linux udoo-quad 4.4.2-2-rt7-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Fri Feb 26 00:58:50 UTC 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux Is the wifi working correctly in other linux distributions? Is there a better driver for the Mediatek RT5370 chipset? The current driver I'm using (rt2800usb) is not very stable... I already updated the firmware from the Mediatek web site: Code: ]$ dmesg|grep ieee80211 [ 9.860881] ieee80211 phy0: rt2x00_set_rt: Info - RT chipset 5390, rev 0502 detected [ 9.903726] ieee80211 phy0: rt2x00_set_rf: Info - RF chipset 5370 detected [ 9.931831] ieee80211 phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'minstrel_ht' [ 10.134052] ieee80211 phy0: rt2x00lib_request_firmware: Info - Loading firmware file 'rt2870.bin' [ 10.188885] ieee80211 phy0: rt2x00lib_request_firmware: Info - Firmware detected - version: 0.33
Dear Pedro, yes the Wi-Fi works fine in UDOO Quad. Do you encounter any problem? Are they only while you use ArchLinux or with other distros too? The only problem is about the signal range. I suggest you to take a look at this page to pimp your Wi-Fi antenna (http://www.udoo.org/tutorial/how-to-mod-your-udoo-to-improve-wi-fi-performances/). Regarding the driver, I really don't know.
Ok thanks. I see that the official distro is based on Ubuntu. I'll take a look at the image you have on your site to check whats the wifi firmware version and if there's a new driver for it.
