## Supported USB WiFi devices
The base image includes drivers and firmware for Ralink RT53xx
(`rt2800usb` driver), RealTek RTL8712U (`r8712u` driver) and
RealTek RTL 8192 (`rtl8192cu` driver) devices (e.g. EDImax USB WiFi dongles).
We are still working out which subset of all possible WiFi dongles to
support in our images. At some point, we may have the option to support
all dongles and selectively install modules at packaging time, but until
then, these drivers and their associated firmware blobs add significantly
to Nerves release images.
If you are unsure what driver your WiFi dongle requires, run Raspbian and configure WiFi
for your device. At a shell prompt, run `lsmod` to see which drivers are loaded.
Running `dmesg` may also give a clue. When using `dmesg`, reinsert the USB
dongle to generate new log messages if you don't see them.
