  1. I was pointed to this as a fix for the 5b's wifi not working. What I have tried worked on debian but is not working on armbian. And I prefer to use Armbian because I find it superior in every other way. The thing I tried that made it work in debian but not armbian is to copy the dtbo file for the ap6275p wifi module into the overlays directory in boot. Then add a line in the armbianenv.txt file that reads "overlays=wifi-ap6275p". I see how that file removes the prefix on the file name. Original filename was rk3588-wifi-ap6275p.dtbo and it was located in boot directory of the debian install I tried. I copied it to boot/rockchip/overlays and renamed it to rockchip-rk3588-wifi-ap6275p.dtbo then added the overlays line to the env.txt. After reboot nothing happens. BUT this exact procedure made it work on Debian. So now here I am wondering what to do. Was pointed here. Will further modification from the procedures discussed here help me? Because I am lost at this point.
  2. Brand new out of box, the wireless works fine on the orange android os. I then downloaded the orange os aarch64 image and installed. It was the latest. Wireless did not work, but after a couple lines of code/commands it did. I had to add a line to the orangepienv.txt file that was dealing with overlays. After that and a reboot it worked fine. BUT it is seriously boxed in. That is, because of lack of aarch64 support I could not download what I needed...so I tried debian which worked ok, but had issues with processing streaming video over 480p...anything higher I was having screen stutter and ripping plus their was artifacts everywhere. Finally I settled on Armbian, the latest. Said it supported opi 5b. BUT it did not support the wireless. Found 1 article on reddit that said to do a very similar process and add a file to the dtb folder and modify one .txt file. I did, I rebooted but still nothing. Here is that article btw. https://www.reddit.com/r/OrangePI/comments/10z65yt/guide_how_to_get_the_official_orange_pi_5_wifi_m2/ I do not understand why this is even a problem. I also do not understand why the manufacturers have not created individual driver files for this sort of thing. The forum here and on orange pi is absolutely slammed full of people with similar hardware issues. SO, my question. Has anyone gotten the latest distro for armbian to work with opi5b including wifi device ap6275p? I am talking about Armbian 23.5 Jammy Gnome running opi5b plus wireless function via ap6275p. Thanks so very much...and thanks for not having an incredibly terrible forum. I am thoroughly NOT impressed with Orange pi's forum or their utter lack of replying on facebook.
