Syncthing

Syncthing is still in development, although a large number of features have already been implemented:

Web GUI. Configure and monitor Syncthing via a responsive and powerful interface accessible via your browser.

Portable. Works on Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris. Run it on your desktop computers and synchronize them with your server for backup.

Simple. Syncthing doesn't need IP addresses or advanced configuration: it just works, over LAN and over the Internet. Every machine is identified by an ID. Just give your ID to you friends, share a folder and watch: UPnP will do if you don't want to port forward or you don't know how.

Powerful. Synchronize as many folders as you need with different people.

Installing driver on Mint, Ubuntu, Xubuntu and Raspberry Pi Raspbian for WiFi USB RT5370 with chipset RTL8188ETV

 Download driver for Raspberry Pi, Mint, Ubuntu or Xubuntu:

https://github.com/liwei/rpi-rtl8188eu/archive/master.zip

or

https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu/archive/master.zip

$ cd ~/Downloads/8188EU/rtl8188eu-master

Unzip file rpi-rtl8188eu-master.zip

$ cd rtl8188eu-master

$ make

If your Raspbian gives you this message:

make: *** /lib/modules/3.10.25+/build: No such file or directory. Stop.

make: *** [modules] Error 2 

 

You must install linux-headers

$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers

$ sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.10-3-rpi

$ sudo ln -s /lib/modules/3.10-3-rpi/build /lib/modules/3.10.25+/build

$ make 

 

wait 5 minutes to finish,

$ sudo make install 

 

$ sudo modprobe -r 8188eu

$ sudo modprobe 8188eu

On my Xubuntu 12.04 chipset RTL8188ETV works just fine.

But on my Raspberry Pi Raspbian it doesn't work.

WiFi USB probably needs external power for Raspberry Pi.
