For now, the easiest way to configure WIFI is by pressing the F12 button for the MiSTer menu, go to the scripts folder and run the WIFI script.
Starting from Release 20180115 MiSTer supports some WiFi USB modules.
- locate the file linux/_wpa_supplicant.conf (example: /media/fat/linux/_wpa_supplicant.conf)
- open in text editor supporting Linux/Unix line endings (for example Notepad++)
- replace put_your_SSID_here with your actual WiFi network name and put_your_password_here with your WiFi password.
- sometimes you need to change the country code from TW to yours.
- rename _wpa_supplicant.conf to wpa_supplicant.conf
- reboot the MiSTer
In Menu core you will see WiFi icon when WiFi is connected.
