===== Abstract =====
- This tutorials is about Lubuntu Desktop/sever wifi configuration on CB1、CB2 and CB3(Cubietruck).
- Cubieboard1 and Cubieboard2 Lubuntu Desktop/sever USB WLAN card driver module:8188eu and 8192eu.
- Cubietruck support Wifi wireless connection with antenna on-board,driver module is bcmdhd.
-" Mw150us + 8188eu" USB WLAN card was tested on CB1 and CB2 on Desktop/sever.
===== Cubieboard Lubuntu Sever =====
Install wifi tool:apt-get install wifi-radar,then ,rebooting CB1 and CB2 only with USB WLAN card ,rebooting CT without network Cable,it will take a few minutes.
===1.Install wifi-radar ===
apt-get install wifi-radar
===Rebooting you can see this===

===5.Geting your WLAN IP,if you can`t go on after "dhclient wlan0",please reboot and do the previous 1-4 steps again===
root@cubieboard:~# dhclient wlan0
