Wifi help

I am trying to get a Murata Wifi module to work on my ORIN NX 16 gb. We backported a driver and it will install but after reboot it needs installed again. How can I make it persistent? The Murata wifi module is a LEE5XV2E if anyone knows where to get drivers for it made for Jetpack 6 or 6.1 please let me know. The one we have works for 6.0 rev 2 kernel 5.15.136. I would like to update it to work on the latest jetpack. Are there instructions for that?

Hello @michael.e.wescott,

Allow me to ask a couple of questions to fully understand your situation:

  1. What do you mean by “installing” the module? Is it modprobing it?
  2. How are you compiling and installing the driver?

My boss came up with a driver somehow that supports kernel 5.15.136 and installs brcmfmac.ko, compat.ko, brcmutil.ko, and cfg80211.ko. He used a combination of insmod, depmod, and modprobe to install them. I am not sure how he came up with the drivers that are compatible with the kernel. All I know is it installs and the wifi works but I have to run the install again to get the wifi connection to show up. I am trying to make a screenless install setup on these orin nx computers. It needs to connect to wifi automatically on boot. I am also considering updating to Jetpack 6.1 so I need to figure out how to update the driver.

Hello @michael.e.wescott,

Thanks for getting back with further details.

In that case, since you don’t have the driver source code.
You might want to try to drop the module into:

/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel

Inside that directory are stored the modules that can be loaded automatically.

You can try copying the module into there and seeing checking if the module will load by it self next time you reboot, if that is not the case, we can check what might be wrong.\

Please keep me posted.
