Hi everyone,
I’ve just bought a jetson nano and an Intel Wifi AX200NGW module
I installed the wifi module in the board and tried to run it, but there’s nothing happen, I couldn’t find any network host
I tried some tutorials to fix this problem including install and load the wifi module driver by Intel
Can anyone help me with this
Thanks a lot
Hi Trung, you might find this blog about using AX200 on Nano relevant: [url]https://wifi.hypergeek.net/you-too-can-have-a-sub-200-11ax-client/[/url]

Hi Dusty
Thank you for your fast response
I did try the solution showed in the link above today
However, after I rebooted the board, the wifi system still didn’t work
Is there any other solution that I can try?
Thank a lot
Hello - thanks Dusty for linking to my blog post.
Would you be able to attach or paste the output of the git, compile, and make install output? Also the output of lspci?
Thanks,
John
Hi John,
I’ve fixed the problem and my board is running wifi smoothly
I fixed it by installed and loaded the wifi driver provided by Intel after I had finished all the steps from the tutorial link above
However, the Bluetooth module still doesn’t work
It’s weird that the wifi is working while the blue tooth is not
Can you help me fix this problem
Thanks
Can you help me understand what steps you took to get things working? I’m not sure what you mean by “installed and loaded the wifi driver provided by Intel after I had finished all the steps from the tutorial link above”.
Thanks,
John
Based on this post I managed to get an AX200 card running:
At the moment I have no wifi 6 infastructure to test the 160 MHz channels with the AX functionality but I can connect to 2.4 and 5 Ghz networks reliably.

For some reason the compiled driver in the git repository expects this firmware microcode file: iwlwifi-cc-a0-49.ucode
Since the driver does not verify firmware checksums to filenames you can simply copy the available 48 version to iwlwifi-cc-a0-49.ucode without having to patch the code.
Compiling with defaults these firmwares and defaults are set:

I did install my Nano + AX200 as above posts. Unfortunately, my Bluetooth is not functioning. Wifi can connect with both 2.4 and 5 GHz but very slow connection at 60-100 Mb/s. about 325-390 Mb/s now.
My lspci below:
$ lspci
00:01.0 PCI bridge: NVIDIA Corporation Device 0fae (rev a1)
00:02.0 PCI bridge: NVIDIA Corporation Device 0faf (rev a1)
01:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Device 2723 (rev 1a)
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 15)
Could you advise the step you did install completely, please?
Note: I did follow the steps from You too can have a sub-$200 .11ax client – Hypergeek Wi-Fi but not working.
Additionally, I found problem loading in-kernel X.509 as below: Not sure whether it is a cause?
dmesg | grep cfg
[ 4.593985] cfg80211: Loading compiled-in X.509 certificates for regulatory database

[ 4.947628] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwl-dbg-cfg.ini failed with error -2
or AX200 will require new kernel 5.1+ for Jetson?

350Mpbs isn’t bad, depending on how the network is configured. As far as Bluetooth, I haven’t really worked on that as I really just needed 11ax working.
Hi John, I refer to your blog for the A200NGW configuration, but the blog is currently unable to open the prompt database without a connection.Can you fix?
@jkilpatrick did you get 350Mpbs with it?
