Title: Avalon Firmware to mine on wifi
Post by: valkir on January 28, 2016, 02:27:28 AM
Hi all

I have an Avalon 4.1 and I was wondering if it could be possible to use a wifi dungle on the rasb pi.

This could give me the possibility to run a avalon anywhere I want.

Any wireless access point will give you the same ability.

Pretty sure he want a way to have the Avalon software try to access LAN/WAN with wifi in the first place. I dont see an option for wlan, and if i click add new network interface, the two options are lan eth0 and custom.

Might be possible to do with custom, but i don't know how it work.

Slapping a wifi bungle would be simple if it worked out of the box.

What he could use is a "Gaming Adapter". They were popular about 5-10 years ago when gaming consoles did not have WiFi support and only had ethernet.

Yeah I want my rasb pi to be able to run on wifi.

Right now avalon firmware need ethernet cable but I will like to be able to use a dungle.

Edit: Could it be possible to do it with a R1 ??

This should really not be needed. The avalon firmware does not come with a wlan interface pre configured but we know for a fact Open WRT can handle it. So it might just be a matter of downloading the right package to install on Open WRT.

Someone that knows networking a bit should be able to give simple instruction on how to get this working.
