[arm-allstar] Pi2 wifi question

[Doug Crompton]

Chuck,

  I recommend the IO gear as the best solution even for the BBB. Wireless FOBS can be a problem and there are so many it is hard to keep up with all possible configurations. When using the IOgear the RPi2 thinks it is connected to a wired network and NO changes are needed in the RPi2 thus swithcing from wired to wireless is seamless.  Another plus when using it is that you can put it outside of a shielded rack and away from the RPi2 or BBB to get a better signal.

Subject: [arm-allstar] Pi2 wifi question

Ok everyone I have a wee problem, and have searched and tried what I found on the web but no joy YET.
I switched from a BBB to a Pi2 this weekend and love it. It boots MUCH faster than the BBB. 
I am presently running the GWU IO Gear dongle but would like to use the ASUS N10 I had on the BBB. I can get it to load and operate using wifi-menu -o for the setup and can manually intialize it, but cannot seem to add it to the boot menu. I have tried the netctl commands suggested on some web pages but it will not activate on boot. Is there a certain way to kickstart it on the Pi2?
