April 7, 20233 yr I just got my tinker board r2.0 today and installed the cli version of armbian. But it seems the wifi module is not regocnized. So also in the armbian-config under network there is no wifi option with SSID and Password fields. Any Idea how I can get it up and running? Also the ifconfig -a command does not show wlan0
May 3, 20233 yr I may be able to shed some light on this. In my (brief) experience, the "current" kernel (5.15) doesn't support the WiFi on the board. The "edge" (6.1) kernel does but doesn't seem to support output to HDMI. I only received my board today, and have just played around with some images I built from source, but that's my experience so far. I'll try to see if I can find out more on what may be the cause of both of these...
