Edimax EW-7811Un Wireless USB Adapter, 150 Mbit / s, IEEE802.11b / g / n (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

The wireless adapter should serve my Raspberry Pi Model B (512MB) without the hassle of wires to bring into the home network. Which reminds me, the data rate was less important than the simplest possible means and there is adequate coverage. Because of the reviews I decided for this adapter. Despite initial problems (more on that later), he is now running properly. The reception is good although I do not have very high expectations (distance about 5-6m, without walls in between). The speed I have not tested this since I currently ansteuere the Raspberry Pi only via SSH. However, I notice no problems even with current downloads.

For installation / configuration under Raspbian Wheezy:
For me, the adapter was immediately recognized by the system, there was no driver installation required. Perfect!
There were problems, however, when connecting to the network. Inexplicably, a device did not work by iwconfig. After some research, I've found the solution: a fixed setting in the / etc / network / interfaces file
So it might look at a WPA2 connection:

# The loopback network interface
Car Lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The Ethernet network interface
iface eth0 inet dhcp

# The WIFI Network Interface
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
WPA SSID wireless SSID
WPA-PSK WLAN password
WPA-PSK WPA key_mgmt
address IP-address-of-PI
netmask 255.255.255.0
Network 192.168.0.0
broadcast 192.168.0.255
gateway 192.168.0.1

Depending on the network, can at network, broadcast and gateway the first three IP blocks look different (eg 192.168.178.0, 192,168,178,255 and 192.168.178.1).

I am satisfied with the adapter and can recommend it for use on Raspberry Pi.
