Hi,

Thanks for the quick response. The driver is working fine. I tested Open, WEP mode and WPA2 is yet to be tested since iwpriv is not working as it is deprecated. I would like to ask a query regarding the firmware

1.Which is the firmware to be used ,rtl8192dufw.bin or rtl8192dufw_wol.bin ?

I guess the firmware is rtl8192dufw.bin or do both the binaries together take care of firmware functionalities.?

In the previous driver which I used,the firmware image was embedded one. Even without using the above binaries , everything is working fine. Is it really required to copy these binaries under system/lib/firmware path.?

I am using Dual Band USB 2.O Wi-Fi Adaptor with RTL8192DU chipset.

Thanks & Regards,
Anjali

Hi ,

I am working on a project on Android Lollipop and I need to use Realtek Wi-Fi Driver RTL8192DU . The Linux kernel version used in Android LOllipop is 3.10.53. And I am getting compile time error during the ko file generation due to many
deperecated APIS used in the driver.

Have u released or worked on Realtek Wi-Fi Driver RTL8192DU for the above
mentioned Linux kernel?

Backports can only backport drivers that are in the kernel. For several reasons, the driver for RTL8192DU has never been submitted for inclusion.

The vendor driver for your device has been updated for later kernels and posted at http://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8192du.git. If that one does not build on your 3.10 kernel, please report an issue for it at GitHub.
