I have bought a plug and play wi-fi usb adapter Mercucys from Amazon, compatible with windows and Linux. I have plugged it into one usb port of usb pcie card Zima and I lunched terminal. With the command “lsusb” ZimaOS sees the hardware “mercucys inc aic8800dc” but when I go into nmtui command there is no wifi connection option. I think there is no driver in ZimaOS kernel for this hardware.
Can you add it in the ZimaOS upcoming updates. Thank you.
Hello, thank you for your report and the photo. It confirms that your adapter’s USB ID is 2c4e:0126. ZimaOS detects it as a USB device.
We checked the drivers currently included in ZimaOS and did not find a match for this USB ID. That may explain why no Wi-Fi option appears in nmtui. However, we need to verify the chip configuration and firmware loading before we can confirm that adding the USB ID alone will fix it.
To help us adapt accurately, could you please provide the output of running the following command?
lsusb -t
sudo lsusb -v -d 2c4e:0126
sudo dmesg | grep -iE ‘aic|firmware|2c4e|0126|wlan’
We’ll use this information to check the required driver and firmware and assess support for a future update. Thank you for helping us improve ZimaOS!
