Hi folks!
I’ve just bought a wireless USB wireless adapter " TL-WN823N(EU) Ver: 3.0" (as box label ID). It was almost plug n play because I can successfully scan the ESSIDs over the air, but I can’t join any of them. I’ve tried to share my iPhone Hot Spot to test too, successfully view the ESSID over the scanning process but it still failing to join. I’ve tried manual wpa_supplicant changing the default driver to wext and to **nl80211 **without different responses.
