Has anyone tried different WiFi card in the miniPCIe slots?

With all the issues Im having with the BE1400 WiFi7 card, it’s got me wondering if there are any other miniPCIe cards that work more reliably without needing special patches or proprietary drivers?

We have test automation with several wifi cards connecting to WiFi 7 AP.

This seems more like a list of client wifi devices. IM looking for wifi cards that I can use to replace the BE1400 as the access point.

It’s an (semi automated) WiFi performance report (in client mode, yes) depending on the kernel and the driver. This is changing also in more / most expensive hardware.

Harder problem. I can only tell that we won’t be doing AP mode tests anytime soon, but if someone has a desire, hardware is in place, test system is open source and “just” need to be configured differently.

Another good resource for wireless networking in Linux is:

In the early days of r4 i tried 2 of them in both slots before i got my r4 wifi cards. But tried only detection by pci bus,not driver level,but should be fine as they are supported by mt76 mainline driver.
