Re: Solving the bootup issue

Thanks.

I applied the same changes and get the same feedback as Peter (above).

For the record I get the same response with not only the TP-Link TL-WN722N but also the WIPI (FCC ID: OYR-COMFAST88). Both are listed as known to be working. I just wondered what might be different in our cases here where the setup is working.
