Hi all,
My first post here, did some searches but came up blank.
I’m trying to get D-Link DWA-160 wifi working with linux-4.0 on the old Beagleboard Rev-C
Many version back (do not recall which) this device worked.
I have listed all I can think of that may help, if I missed something please let me know.
Any help will be appreciated,
