Mediatek mt7668 WiFi chip

em0ne · January 18, 2020 at 8:35 AM

Hello everybody,

I have ordered some boxes that use the mt7668 WiFi chip alongside the s905x3 cpu.

Is there any way to make the WiFi chip work? Is it maybe possible to email mediatek about a driver? Maybe a project like openwrt has got a driver?

The drivers and firmware for the MT7668 chipset are already in the upstream kernel so should be simple to include. That's only half of the solution though, and I'm not sure what device-tree changes are needed to init the card. It would be useful to see the Android device-tree file.

As you wish chewitt. Is this .dtb file useful to you?

Let me know if you have any questions.

Can anything be deduced from the dtb file? I could only upload it as a zip file. Was it packed correctly?

I've downloaded it and will have a look in the next couple of days.

btw, what boxes did you order?

I ordered some A95x F3 boxes. The dtb file is also of an a95x f3 that I asked someone to dump on another forum.

If the file Is not properly dumped I will be happy to also dump the file from one of my boxes when they arrive.

My boxes have arrived. If you need any further information or testing to be done please let me know.

Have you had a chance to look at it yet?

Hello again chewitt. Since I spoke to you last you wanted me to test Balbes' image. Unfortunately I am not sure which exact image of his to test.

I only see his source code.. Any link to the finished images?

Hello chewitt : Could you please tell me which branch of kernel has the driver ? I would like to have a trial. Thanks !

It's upstream, so torvalds/master would always be a starting point.
