Sitecom WL-344 wireless not working

The solutions is block the rt2800usb

 echo ‘blacklist rt2800usb’ | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

restart, and try this

echo ‘install rt2870sta modprobe –ignore-install rt2870sta ; /bin/echo “0df6 0040” > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rt2870/new_id’ | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/rt2870sta.conf
sudo modprobe rt2870sta
dmesg | egrep ‘rt28|usb|Phy’
iwconfig
sudo iwlist scan

 

(the first Line allocate the Chipset-ID to the driver rt2870sta)

If the solution works, activiate it automatically by a new udev-Rule

sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/10-wlan.rules

Insert the following code and save the file

 # UDEV-Rule for Sitecom WL-344 ID 0df6:0040

SUBSYSTEM==”usb”, SYSFS{idVendor}==”0df6″, SYSFS{idProduct}==”0040″, RUN+=”/sbin/modprobe rt2870sta”

Activate it (or restart)

 sudo service udev reload
