Usb to ethernet adapter

atux_null · February 24, 2024, 7:43pm

I have a usb to ethernet adapter attached to my router and it is seen in dmesq:

[2807386.049036] usb 1-5: new high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci
root@APU_orange: ~ $

how do i configure it in Luci to make it availble as an ethernet Interface, please?

If OpenWrt sees is it is in devices.

frollic · February 24, 2024, 7:45pm

or you need to install the required packages.
lsusb will help here.

See USB 2.0 to Ethernet Adapter driver for OpenWRT

Then load all the packages suggested.

atux_null · February 24, 2024, 9:24pm

which are?
how do i find out which modules do i have to load?

LilRedDog · February 24, 2024, 9:30pm

You will need to read the link from @AndrewZ and @frollic will need to help with their suggestion.

atux_null · February 24, 2024, 9:32pm

@frollic lsusb is not present
@LilRedDog i have seen the thread you mentioned, but i cannot identify which module i have to install

AndrewZ · February 24, 2024, 9:33pm

This is your adapter. Just google for these details and at some point you should find that you need exactly the same driver that was mentioned in the old thread.

Edit: Apologies for my negligence. That driver supports a similar(?) device with the same Product Id and Manufacturer name, but different Vendor Id (0x0a46).
I would try manually adding this device to the dm9601 driver and see.

atux_null · February 24, 2024, 9:40pm

i got it installed and rebooted the router. Unfortunately i do not see any new device available in the Network>interfaces>devices.

AndrewZ · February 24, 2024, 9:41pm

I never mentioned it should be there. Please read what I posted in the old thread:

The interface name comes from the log.

atux_null · February 24, 2024, 9:46pm

@AndrewZ i went through the old thread, but i cannot find what is missing. i installed the kmod-usb-net-dm9601-ether, rebooted the router, but i do not see any new device in my router

AndrewZ · February 24, 2024, 9:47pm

logread | grep dm9601

frollic · February 24, 2024, 9:52pm

Need to install it, as any other non default binary.

atux_null · February 25, 2024, 9:21am

Even though it is installed as in

it is not shown in CLI

what should i do then to make it work?

AndrewZ · February 25, 2024, 9:24am

Disconnect the adapter, run logread -f, connect the adapter back, show the output.

my usb to ethernet is the highlighted in bold.

AndrewZ · February 25, 2024, 9:34am

Try loading kmod-usb-net-pegasus

Your device is defined in this driver:

#define	VENDOR_ADMTEK	0x07a6
PEGASUS_DEV("ADMtek ADM8515 \"Pegasus II\" USB-2.0 Ethernet",
		VENDOR_ADMTEK, 0x8515,
