I have got realtek WIFI working on NanoPi NEO. This might not be required once FriendlyARM team provides
out of the box support for these drivers.
Getting RTL8188CUS working on NanoPi NEO.
1. Add next line to the end of /etc/apt/sources.list :
deb
http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
2. Refresh :
apt update
3. Install
apt install firmware-realtek
4. Reboot
5. Check if driver is working
lsusb
iwconfig
ifconfig
In my case instead of wlan0 it is listed as enx0013ef6d10f4 adapter connection.
6. Edit /etc/network/interfaces file:
# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
# Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d:
source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
allow-hotplug enx0013ef6d10f4
iface enx0013ef6d10f4 inet dhcp
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
7. Edit /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf file:
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
network={
ssid="your_router_wifi_ssid_here"
psk="your_password_here"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}
8. Remove next line from the end of /etc/apt/sources.list :
deb
http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
9. Refresh
apt update
