No auto connect on wifi

[prynn]

I’ve a mecool m8s pro+ with a odroid wifi usb module and whenever I start the device wifi says connection failure im coreelec settings, I’ve to manually connect to wifi.
Anything weird in the logs? - http://ix.io/24uZ

Also the wifi module says 300mbps
Im getting 37mbit/s down and 18mbit/s up.
Is the USB 2.0 connector that bad in this device?
I’ve 1000/1000 fiber

Thanks

Maybe this post can help you

A95X Max and Tplink T3U

One of my TV Boxes has broken WiFi and I have installed a USB 2.4/5 GHz WiFi adapter without major problems. Everything works better than before. The only care to keep in mind is that the USB WiFi adapter is supported by CoreELEC and disconnect the inbuild WiFi driver that does not work in /storage/.config/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf. In my case the driver for the USB WiFi adapter is 88x2bu, and my inbuild driver to disconnect is wlan (the content of my blacklist.conf is blacklist wlan). You will…

Not sure how that would help the auto connect?
The wifi module do work. It’s just that I need to manually connect under Coreelec - configuration - select my wifi - connect.

The speed sure but I did use a usb Ethernet adapter before and it gave me good speeds

As I suggest in the post, disconnect the internal WiFi module, then you will see that everything works fine.

Oh right, this is the output of lsmod:

Not sure what to disable…

I am not surprised that you have problems, before answering with any nonsense disconnect the WiFi USB module, restart the device and re-write lsmod in SSH to be able to recognize the drivers used by each of the WiFis.

[prynn]

lol why is that?

removed the USB wifi and restarted the device, now I’m not able to connect to wifi at all.

[cubimol]

Your two WiFis use drivers from the same manufacturer and use similar and even shared drivers. I cannot know which drivers are from one chipset and which are from another. It is even possible that your problem has no solution and you have to change to another USB WiFi module from another manufacturer.

The only suggestion I can make is that you try to use ethernet if you cannot use the internal WiFi to enter the device with SSH to write lsmod.

Alright to bad, found this aswell: 8.95.0 9082xs No Wifi

Guess the simple way is just to use ethernet instead,

Appreciate you took time to look into my issue.
