Currently newer revisions of the RTL8723BU devices don't get recognised with the Odroid Go Advance 4.4y kernel.

Example fix:

#define USB_VENDER_ID_EDIMAX 0x7392

Add: {USB_DEVICE_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(USB_VENDER_ID_EDIMAX, 0xA611, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff), .driver_info = RTL8723B}, / 8723BU 1*1 */

in os_dep/linux/usb_intf.c so it reads:

#ifdef CONFIG_RTL8723B
/* === Realtek demoboard === /
{USB_DEVICE_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(USB_VENDER_ID_REALTEK, 0xB720, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff), .driver_info = RTL8723B}, / 8723BU 11 /
/ {USB_DEVICE(USB_VENDER_ID_REALTEK, 0xB720),.driver_info = RTL8723B}, 8723BU /
{USB_DEVICE_AND_INTERFACE_INFO(USB_VENDER_ID_EDIMAX, 0xA611, 0xff, 0xff, 0xff), .driver_info = RTL8723B}, / 8723BU 1
1 */
#endif

I noticed the driver version is v4.3.16 with hardkernel versus v5.8.4 from the usb vendor

Hi and thanks for all your hard work.
Yes by the past i remember using it on OGAv1 but now it not working on OGS.
OGS have only one USB port, and no WIFI and no Bluetooth. Some USB dongle give us the two in one device. And all of them using this chipset.

Please consider to update this driver to help users.
Thanks a lot
