Hi
Are there any compatible M.2 wifi/bluetooth modules for the i-Pi SMARC IMX8M Plus? We can't use a USB interface for Wifi for our application hence the need for a M.2 interface.
We've got a Intel Wireless-AC 9260 module, it uses the M.2 interface but it doesn't work on the i-Pi which is running Ubuntu server so any other suggestions for will help as well.
Thanks.
Hi Yegan,
from the specs it should work, PCIe for wifi, USB for BT
Can you see the PCIe device ? (lspcie)
Hi Henri
I'm not able to see the PCIe device? Is it possibly a kernal problem? It was setup using the "How to build Ubuntu" under the support link of this website but for Ubuntu server instead of Ubuntu Desktop.
Doesn't sound right, you should at least see a device, even if it's not recognized.
could you post the output here?, do you see the PCIe switch ?
@henri parmentier running the sudo lshw command this is what I get (there is something under usbhost2 but still not picking it up properly):

Seems no PCIe listed at all, I think something went wrong with your build, it does see the USB bluetooth
if this enables all PCIe busses then we see how to go further
@Henri Parmentier What is the log-in details for this image?
