WiFi Kit
The AsiaRF AW7916-NPD and three antennas: Wi-Fi 6E on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz at once, for the RISC-V Router (no WiFi) or as a spare.
Features
Wi-Fi 6E
AX3000 on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz at the same time, with MU-MIMO, OFDMA and WPA3.
Works the moment it is seated
StartWRT carries the driver in its firmware image: no extra software, no configuration. On the RISC-V Router it runs the module on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz concurrently; 6 GHz is not used.
Open drivers
On other boards it works with any Linux system that includes the mt76 driver, including OpenWrt.
Fifteen minutes to install
With the screwdriver that comes with the router. The module is sensitive to static and its antenna connectors are small, so follow the step-by-step guide, with photos, before you open the router.
