Wi-Fi Direct on raspberry pi 2 (jessie)

Wifi device: Plugable usb 2 wifi adapter with RTL8188CUS.

Several issues at start:

  • Can't list the device with iw list
  • Can't initiate P2P commands from wpa_cli
(however, ifconfig and iwconfig works as expected and the device can connect to wlan. wpa_supplicant.conf established previously with another device)

Installation, see RTL8188CUS.

Configuration, see wifi how-to-use. In my case I added wlan1 to /etc/network/interfaces. wpa_supplicant.conf was already configured for the existing wlan.

Install RTL drivers and software enabling wifi-direct, follow these instructions. Try to run the P2P_UI following these instructions. Tried connecting with LG G2 android. Success on some rare occassions. Most often received "UI unkown failed" (same as for teksaport).

Tried with a pristine jessie img and updated installation instructions provided by bass0324  on Wed Jul 30, 2014 2:39 am.  Same issue as above. Will soon test with TP-Link WN725N.
