What is the current status of WiFi on Orange Pi Zero 2?

[pprdr]

Hello, I am wondering what is the current status of wifi on Orange Pi Zero 2? Is it working? If yes then on which release? If not then what are the current problems related to this? Is somebody working on it? How one could help to make it working?

 

I am asking because I am a little bit confused because of this

This topic is more than 2 years old but I see no update.

I've been using one for about a year with bullseye, WiFi works, but I've been having issues, but I had issues with other devices, I just added an access point that looks promising.

is there any hope for this? this seems a very promising board that can be used both server only or cli with the micro hdmi output.
I have one and it's super incredibly power efficient, 1-2 watt, quite cool.

Without wifi is impossible to use it.

Any way to help?

Did some cleanup here.

Might be slightly off-topic but I won't serve anything via WiFi lol.

I was using the orange pi naming convention

they call "desktop" and "server" version, for "server" being the headless one.

 

I'm using it headless (server ) for 3d printing with octoprint and ... wifi

I am attempting to use an Orange Pi Zero 2 as a NUT server (Network UPS Tools) server to be able to monitor all of the UPSs from a central location. The Zero2 is small and low power enough to provide the hardware that goes on each UPS, and wifi seems more than sufficient for this task.  

 

This is just one example of a "server" need for wifi.
