Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH 2/2] configs/warp7: Improve Wifi instructions
Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2025 10:10:54 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250422131054.1115455-2-festevam@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250422131054.1115455-1-festevam@gmail.com>
The "modprobe brcmfmac" command is not necessary because this driver
is automatically loaded.
Remove the "iwconfig" line as it is considered deprecated:
warning: `iwconfig' uses wireless extensions which will stop working for Wi-Fi 7 hardware; use nl80211
Remove the "-Dwext" parameter as it is not supported by the default kernel
configuration:
wlan0: Unsupported driver 'wext'
Tested Wifi by following the updated commands.
