Hello,
Due to poor wifi on onboard antenna I would like to use external usb dongle as wifi adapter. I bought adapter based on: RTL8812CU.
After connection to RPI is detected as mass storage (there are drivers for Windows)
When RPi is started is enough to unplug and plug dongle and then is detected as it should be and connecting to network and works fine.
I tried also use usb_modeswitch but doesnt work ( not switching automatically from mass storage to normal mode)
add to file
then and after reboot still is detected like before Any idea how to force connecting only in normal wifi mode not mass storage mode?
Im not able each time manually unplug and plug module.
Thank you in advance for your help!
