I’m attempting to connect an Intel BE200 WiFi 7 & Bluetooth card to my NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX Developer Kit, but I’m encountering significant difficulties. Here are the details of my setup and the issues I’m facing:

  1. Hardware: NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX Developer Kit, Intel BE200 WiFi 7 & Bluetooth card
  2. Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  3. Kernel version: 5.15.148-tegra

Despite loading the iwlwifi module, I’m unable to detect any WiFi interfaces. The Bluetooth functionality is also not working. I’ve tried the following steps:

  1. Updated the linux-firmware package
  2. Attempted to compile and install the latest backport-iwlwifi drivers
  3. Checked for the presence of the correct firmware files

However, I’m still encountering errors during the driver compilation process, specifically related to the ‘iwl_ax210_cfg_so_hr_b0’ configuration.My questions are:

  1. Is the Intel BE200 WiFi card officially supported on the Jetson Orin NX platform?
  2. Are there any known compatibility issues between this WiFi card and the Jetson Orin NX?
  3. Are there any specific steps or configurations required to make this combination work?
  4. If this combination is not supported, can you recommend any alternative WiFi 7 solutions that are compatible with the Jetson Orin NX?

Any guidance or information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and assistance.

Hi,
Certain kernel configs may need to be enabled for the device. This use-case may help:

Jetson/L4T/r36.3.x patches - eLinux.org
Enable AX210 WIFI module

Please enable the configs for a try.
