Hi,

Objective: Using the TS-7553board, communicate using ASUS USB-N13 Wifi adapter through my wireless router. I want the TS-7553 to function as server while remote clients send request/status. The board will then process the information and send back the information.

Problem: After configuation, can not communicate to the outside world.
I tried to ping from a remote pc to the board->did not work.
I tried to ping from the board to a remote pc->did not work.
I tied to ping google.com->did not work
I tried to ping directly to google IP address-> did not work
I tried to ping my router-> did not work
I tried setting the board with a fixed IP address-> did not work

Setup: Inserted the ASUS Wifi adapter in the middle USB slot

Data Capture:
ts7500:~# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
ra0 Ralink STA
usb0 no wireless extensions.

ts7500:~# ifconfig ra0 up
ts7500:~# iwconfig ra0 essid "XXX-linksys" key "XXX"


What is in the logs after this command. Its not associating for some reason (iwconfig below states that)

It doesn't get an address and therefore anything in the routing table

Any suggestions?

Look at ifconfig. ra0 won't have an address.
Find out why it will not associate. does the essid show up in a scan?

Also (you're not to this point yet) dont forget to give the default route to ra0 if you want to see the public network.
