Hello everybody,
I’m here because I have serious problem to activate Wifi for osmc on my raspberry Pi.
I made some research but none of them help me to resolve my problem.
I have a Wifi dongle (D-Link DWA-131). Maybe it’s just impossible to activate it.
When I go on the network section on osmc, I just have Wired possibility. I saw it was because my dongle is not recognized.
When i type the command dmesg, I have the following result :
[14529.424814] usb 1-1.3: USB disconnect, device number 4
[14535.096907] usb 1-1.3: new high-speed USB device number 6 using dwc_otg
[14535.229275] usb 1-1.3: New USB device found, idVendor=2001, idProduct=330d, bcdDevice= 2.00
[14535.229304] usb 1-1.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[14535.229323] usb 1-1.3: Product: 802.11n WLAN Adapter
[14535.229336] usb 1-1.3: Manufacturer: Realtek
[14535.229348] usb 1-1.3: SerialNumber: 00xxxc000001
So I was thinking it was ok for the dongle.
[EDIT]
I also tried this command
sudo connmanctl
connmanctl> enable wifi
Error wifi: Method “SetProperty” with signature “sv” on interface “net.connman.Technology” doesn’t exist
[/EDIT]
As I couldn’t see the wifi option in networking section, I tried to add lines in /var/lib/connman/settings. (Wifi line was not in the file)
[Wifi]
Enable=true
Tethering=false
But that didn’t work
Last, I found the driver here : D-Link Support Resources
So I downloaded the driver and tried to install it
wget http://files.dlink.com.au/products/DWA-131/REV_E/Drivers/DWA-131_Linux_v5.6.3.1.zip
unzip -d . *.zip
cd 20190828_DWA-131_Linux_driver_v5.6.3.1/
tar zxvf rtl8192EU_WiFi_linux_v5.6.3.1_34030.20190613_COEX20171113-0047.tar.gz
cd rtl8192EU_WiFi_linux_v5.6.3.1_34030.20190613_COEX20171113-0047
make
However, I have this error :
make ARCH=armv6l CROSS_COMPILE= -C /lib/modules/4.19.55-6-osmc/build M=/home/osmc/Downloads/20190828_DWA-131_Linux_driver_v5.6.3.1/rtl8192EU_WiFi_linux_v5.6.3.1_34030.20190613_COEX20171113-0047 modules
make[1]: *** /lib/modules/4.19.55-6-osmc/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
Makefile:2257: recipe for target ‘modules’ failed
make: *** [modules] Error 2
So I dont know what to do know.
Do you have some ideas ? Is it even possible.
Thanks for your help 
What chipset does it have?
Chipset for the dongle ? How can i know that ?
uname -a
Linux osmc 4.19.55-6-osmc #1 PREEMPT Mon Nov 4 00:06:36 UTC 2019 armv6l GNU/Linux
Is it that ?
I think so. I dont know i can be sure about it
I assume you’ve installed the headers. If so, run this command:
sudo ln -s /usr/src/rbp1-headers-$(uname -r) /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build
Edit: I see it’s a Pi1, so I’ve amended the command.
Note to @sam_nazarko Shouldn’t this be created by the headers package?
Yes – but there is still no solution to that yet.
Thanks for your answers. Now I’m facing this issue when I launch make command :
make[1]: Entering directory ‘/lib/modules/4.19.55-6-osmc/build’
make[1]: *** No rule to make target ‘modules’. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory ‘/lib/modules/4.19.55-6-osmc/build’
Makefile:2257: recipe for target ‘modules’ failed
make: *** [modules] Error 2
As I said, make file is downloaded from D-Link official website. Here are the lines :
2254 all: modules
2255
2256 modules:
2257 $(MAKE) ARCH=$(ARCH) CROSS_COMPILE=$(CROSS_COMPILE) -C $(KSRC) M=$(shell pwd) modules
2258
2259 strip:
2260 $(CROSS_COMPILE)strip $(MODULE_NAME).ko --strip-unneeded
I tried with this driver : GitHub - lord2y/rtl8192eu-arm-linux-driver: Raspberry Pi Drivers for the rtl8192eu chipset for wireless adapters (D-Link DWA-131 rev E1 included!)
But I’m facing the same issue 
On a Pi3, that code builds successfully, though you need to fix the headers using this workaround. Perhaps it’s an armv6l-related problem.
