AW: is it possible to enable dualband or even 2.4 GHz on QCA9994? (Compex WLE1216V5-20)

Hi,

as far as I understand, I need a special "board.bin"-file or "firmware-x.bin"-file to say the card it should make 2g or 5g?
So where do I get those "special" files? Or can I build them myself?
I can not find any helpful information on "Google".

Thanks
BG
Frank

It looks like it's really designed as either 2g or 5g. You could make your own card up with both 2g/5g paths but you'd have to reload the firmware/calibration data as needed to band switch. it wouldn't be "automatic". :(

sorry!

And I need the info, if and how is possible to enable dualband mode. If there is some physics like LNA or what ever missing, we can do this our self.
