Download the BINARY firmware file from this link: 43439A0-7.95.49.00.combined ~220K
Make sure the configuration file variable points to the correct firmware file: CONFIG_CYW43439_FIRMWARE_BIN_PATH="${PICO_SDK_PATH}/lib/cyw43-driver/firmware/43439A0-7.95.49.00.combined" When compiling, the cyw43439.firmware.image file is created, and it’s the same as firmware/43439A0-7.95.49.00.combined. Ensure the paths and files match during the build, especially in: boards/arm/rp2040/common/src/cyw43439.firmware.image prebuilt firmware nuttx.uf2.zip
@darwinbeing Thanks a lot for your quick help! With that firmware, I got wifi working on pi pico W with SDK 2.0.
Besides this firmware issue during setup, along the way I encounter other issues as shown by the following commands: 1) When not set during menuconfig, SSID and passphrase entered manually in wapi commands disappeared after reboot 2) ifconfig did not output ip address, etc. 3) ifup wlan0 returned message OK which was misleading when wlan0 was not connected and not up running correctly
Note: for the following session, SSID and passphrase were not set from menuconfig.

I see if there is no firmware file present, then the firmware file is initialized with the text "dummy" at boards/arm/rp2040/raspberrypi-pico-w/src/Make.defs
line 53.
Did the firmware file used to be generated? Maybe we can incorporate that generation back into the build system, or instruct users on how to build the firmware? This should at least be documented somewhere versus the current documentation which just instructs the firmware repo to be cloned.
It appears the new firmware file actually allows the blob binary to be included as a C variable instead of requiring the assembly instruction to include the binary.
Maybe we could update the boards/arm/rp2040/common/src/rp2040_firmware.c
file to do that? I'll look into it. It would also be good to add a warning for the missing firmware file instead of silently making a dummy file.
Description / Steps to reproduce the issue
Except getting the latest Pi Pico SDK 2.0, the rest is the same as https://github.com/apache/nuttx/issues/7475, which is closed now.
Similar to the errors in https://github.com/apache/nuttx/issues/7475, the following errors occurred:
I set SSID and passphrase in menuconfig, and also tried to set them in nsh.
nsh> renew wlan0 ERROR: netlib_obtain_ipv4addr() failed nsh> ifconfig wlan0 wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00 at DOWN mtu 5nsh> nsh> nsh> ifup wlan0 ifup wlan0...Failed
ChatGPT suggested to set mac address: ifconfig wlan0 hw ether XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX (e.g., 28:CD:C1:0A:38:9A) but got error: nsh: ifconfig: argument invalid
nsh> wapi show wlan0 wlan0 Configuration: IP: 0.0.0.0 NetMask: 255.255.255.0 nsh> wapi scan wlan0 nsh> wapi scan_results wlan0 nsh> ifup wlan0 ifup wlan0...Failed
Besides this firmware issue during setup, along the way I encounter other issues as shown in comments below: 1) When not set during menuconfig, SSID and passphrase entered manually in wapi commands disappeared after reboot 2) ifconfig did not output ip address, etc. 3) ifup wlan0 returned message OK which was misleading when wlan0 was not connected and not up running correctly
