I used my SmartQ7 for the whole day.
After I restarted the device, wicd stopped recognizing any wireless networks.
I read somewhere, that the it can happen when the device is too hot, so I turned it off for the whole week. It didn't help.
Then I tried to reflash it (4.0). It didn't help too. I also tried all of the older firmwares (3,2,1).
when i run "sudo ifconfig -a", I get only the "lo" interface. So it looks like the device is not recognized.
I checked and the driver is loaded (i ran lsmod, and found there sd8686).
Does anybody know, what can i do?
Any help will be appreciated.
