The hardest part of every BeagleBone project seems to be getting WiFi working :) I followed the Adafruit tutorial and used the same TP-Link TL-WN727N as I've used before. I mostly had it working last night, but woke to it being off the network this morning. Figuring it was the usual bunk about power management, or wifi-reset services, I serial consoled in and started poking around. wlan0 is nowhere to be found. iwconfig is blank:
root@beaglebone:~# iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. usb0 no wireless extensions. lsusb shows the device, but my linux foo is too weak to poke much further.
