How to compile a USB wifi driver?

Hi all,

I have a problem. My respeaker can’t found some SSIDs on the CISCO wi-fi access point.

So, I have tried to connect via USB wi-fi card to the access point,

and I have compiled the USB wi-fi driver, but I can’t.



I don’t know exactly but I know that to compile a driver, I need ‘/scripts/recordmcount’

To compile ‘/scripts/recordmcount’, I execute ‘make scripts’ like the followings.

respeaker@v2:/usr/src/linux-headers-4.4.138-respeaker-r0$ sudo make scripts

scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig

Hi n-shinkai,



Are you using the 2.4Ghz network or 5Ghz? and it only supports 2.4Ghz network.
