05:56 | jnettlet | wbx, yes upstream WiFi drivers should work as long as you have the firmware files. |
05:58 | jnettlet | The move to TI was two fold. First the bcm4330 is end of life. Second the TI WiFi performance is much better. It can do 50Mbps with the default single channel and 92Mbps with the dual channel variant. |
05:59 | jnettlet | The throughput limitation on the chip is 100Mbps. |
06:00 | jnettlet | I can test the upstream kernel today but everything was working last time I tested it. Of course things are known to break as well. |
08:38 | wbx | jnettlet: may be my config isn't uptodate anymore. it worked for an older kernel. |
08:41 | jnettlet | wbx, which kernel are you testing? |
08:43 | wbx | 4.7.3 |
08:43 | wbx | is mac80211 for full mac required? |
08:43 | jnettlet | no it shouldn't be required |
08:43 | wbx | i see it enabled in the armbian config |
08:44 | jnettlet | if you have brcmfmac enabled and it is required then the driver would enabled it |
09:00 | wbx | first some bread rolls, then I try a new compile ;) |
09:00 | jnettlet | enjoy |
09:00 | wbx | thx |
