Скачать или смотреть Why Does WiFi Sometimes Not Work: Android TV Box New Firmware Installations

Manufacturers equip TV boxes with WiFi chips that require firmware to have a specific driver installed for that WiFi chipset to work.

Some WiFi chipset manufacturers don't always release these drivers, only giving them to the factory that produces the TV box. This means we will always have third party firmware or some other development for these TV boxes that simply cannot support that particular WiFi chipset.

One particular WiFi chipset that has plagued Chinese TV boxes is known as a 'SCI' WiFi chip, nobody has to be able to obtain this particular driver from them. Realtek, however, seem to release drivers for all their chipsets, but TV box manufacturers don't always buy Realtek as they cost a little more than say an SCI chip. This rabbit hole doesn't stop them.

Each edition of an android or Linux based system requires its very own specific driver for a particular WiFi chip. An example would be an S805 box having WiFi drivers available for all WiFi chips for Android 4.4.2 but the android 5.1 release did not as the range of WiFi chips didn't have proper driver support for this new android. This extends further to the newer boxes we have and all the custom firmware that is released.

Now a did say this rabbit hole goes quite deep, this driver issue extends to the TV box manufacturers themselves. They produce a
particular type of TV box with one WiFi chip and then stop production only to continue later on but with a slightly revised motherboard design utilizing a different WiFi chipset. This means we end up with countless variations of firmware released by the TV box manufacturers for the same box. This makes it hard to determine what firmware is right for your box even though on the surface you have downloaded the correct file.
