digitalbilly Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Anyone try to swap there wifi card? assuming it will work under windows what about the atarios is there support? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THX-1138 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Since AtariOS is Linux, so it depends. Support for that device -MAY- be in Kernel 5.10, but I am not sure what version kernel AtariOS runs by default. It's based on Apertis v2021 which is built off Debian 10.12, I am not sure if that was Kernel 4.x when it came out. I am busy for much of today but I can try and find out later (UK time) when I get home, unless someone else can find out in the meantime.

digitalbilly Posted December 13, 2022 Author Share Posted December 13, 2022 doing more research theres more versions of this wifi card maybe AX411 is the way to go latest version? https://mightygadget.co.uk/intel-ax411-vs-ax211-vs-ax210-wi-fi-6e-modules-compared/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of surprised if AtariOS hasn't updated to Debian 11... I mean in the next few months they're going to be going to 'freeze' for the eventual release of Debian 12. Then again I guess that would need to be Apertis... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leech Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Tested the AX210 card. It looked like it was detected... but then couldn't scan for networks. So this is a no for that particular card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzip Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Even if it's supported by Linux, there's always the chance they didn't include unnecessary hardware modules to save space. You won't know unless you try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't know unless you try Yup, which is why I gave it a shot. It seems likely that the base driver is there, and likely just missing the firmware blob. I say this as the way it acted like Wifi / Bluetooth was there, but it couldn't find any devices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be something as simple as while the kernel has the drivers, they have wifi setup scripts in place that are looking for the expected adapter and not something else.

Ha, well if AtariOS had a console app, I could find out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
