I'm not sure this is right place for this issue, but want to save time for those who wants run wifi access point on sonaremin.

I wanted to configure wifi hostspot on sonaremin to receive some data from remote sensors, but it doesn't work correctly, it only works with hw_mode=a but not "g" or "b". The issue seems to be in firmware BOOTPART/bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb, after replacing it with fresh version from Ubuntu 21.04, wifi access point works correctly in any hw_mode.

thank you once more for your valuable feedback ... i did not even try to use the sonaremin with wifi yet actually :) .... can you please provide me a link the file which worked for you, then i can see if i find the difference and incorporate it into my images by default as well ... i'm using the dtb files from the raspberry-pi kernel and i think the ubuntu ones might have some additions in them on top

best wishes - hexdump

Thank you for you work, too, it's really cool thing you done, i'm going to use sonaremin for generative music machine based on gyroscope sensors as lfo source. You actually can find this file in system-boot partition when you install ubuntu 21.04 using rpi-imager, I couldn't find a link, there is also git repo https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/commits/master/boot/bcm2711-rpi-4-b.dtb with history.
