Official WiFi add-on module, is it supported on OpenFyde? #19

Hi there,

I have just booted OpenFyde on the Orange Pi 5, which has the official WiFi module add-on installed, but it's not detected on boot. Is it supported?

This is the chip it uses: https://www.sparklan.com/product/ap6275p-broadcom-sip-module/

This is the module they are selling:

Thanks!

EDIT: On GNU/Linux (DietPi) it uses an overlay to work. Adding this line to /boot/dietpiEnv.txt works: overlays=opi5-wifi-ap6275p

I hope it helps in order to get this official add-on supported in OpenFyde.

I see there's this already on the OpenFyde system: ROOT-A/boot/rockchip/overlay/rk3588-wifi-ap6275p.dtbo

So, the only question now is: How can I enable an overlay in OpenFyde?

There’s a mistake I made in kernel config so even you apply the dtbo it won’t work.

Ah, ok, so next version will support the official WiFi add-on (ap6275p) ??

Yes.

In r108-r2, you can add overlays=opi5-wifi-ap6275p to /mnt/stateful_partition/fyde/Env.txt as FAQ describes.
