How to use a WiFi 7 NIC?-R4-Lite

The mPCIe A/B lanes have two configuration options: a single 2-lane interface(mPCIe A) or two separate 1-lane interfaces(mPCIe A+mPCIe B).The BPI-R4-NIC module requires 12V power supply, so the power supply on the BPI-R4_Lite-Main must be turned on before powering on (SW4 is turned to the “ON” position, and the 12V LED will lights up when power on).

When you need to use a WiFi 7 NIC, be sure to flash the 1PCIe, 2Lane image.
