Tool/software: Linux
Hello,
I have a WL1831MOD module on a custom AM335x-based board. On the latest processor-sdk-linux-rt-4.14.y from ti's git server, the WL1831MOD reports via iw list that it is 5 GHz-capable. This is causing wifi outages, as our analog front end is not tuned for this frequency, nor do I think the chip is even actually capable of it.
Any help would be appreciated.
From boot:
