You can't get any access to TI FW. It's not a public code.

You can use external design house (such as ourselves).

I would be very interested in talking to you about this.  I sent an email, but haven't heard back.  Is there a better way to touch base with you?

Thanks,

Craig

Eyal,

I am interested in discussing licensing options (direct and via third parties) for WL1271 custom firmware. Can you put me in contact with the appropriate person at TI? Below is my email:

Eyal,

I'm very interested in Monitor mode for the WL1283. Is it supported by TI? I would also be interested in partners that provide this support.

Hi,

Basically Monitor mode is not supported by TI and please note that there are 2 main limitations in the chipset for Monitor mode, the first limitation is that we support 11n single stream therefore we cannot guarantee reception of MIMO traffic due to CPU load (MIMO is twice the traffic), in addition the Host interface is SDIO which limits the traffic rate between the Chip and the Host.

Eyal

Hi Greg

As Eyal mentioned out, there are issues with develop monitor mode as is, either HW limitation to 11n rates and throughput issues that might occurred (=packet lost).

However, there are solution to compensate on these drawbacks depending on your desired product. 

We will talk offline. 

Thanks,

Hi,

  I am Lavanya from Sasken Inida, in our project we are using Panda board with TiWi BLE wireless module. Even if we set "RX_CONFIG" and "RX_FILTER" we are able to receive only few packet from the other BSSID and STAs. We came to know FW does not support monitor mode even if we enable RX_CFG_PROMISCUOUS. How to resolve this, Does TI released new FW binary with monitor mode enabled? Please give me some solution for this issue.

Thanks,

Lavanya
