Review on 🍊 Enhance and Safeguard Your Raspberry Pi Zero W: Transparent Orange Acrylic Case Cover by MakerSpot Accessories by Kevin Ayala

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good accessory, Wi-Fi DOA dongle but it has been replaced

Holes have been drilled in the case so it looks like the problem that was bothering other commenters has been solved. However, I couldn't get the wifi key to work. It was recognized when I did lsusb, but the GUI said there were no interfaces connected. I replaced another dongle (a different Realtek variant) that I had on the RP2 I'm running retropy on and it worked right away. I tried the original key in my working RetroPie and now it's locked. I'm not 100% sure if this is related and more fixes are needed, but at this point it's pretty clear that the key isn't working anyway. To edit. So RetroPie is working again. It was "White Screen of Death" fixed by changing the theme in Emulation Station. Not sure why it decided to block immediately after I changed hardware, but whatever. I still can't get the key to work properly. Post-New-WiFi-Edit- So contacted the seller and they replaced the WiFi dongle with no problems. Good customer service!
