Intel BE 200 Wi-Fi 7 not working on orange pi 5 plus running Armbian

[A bambah]

My setup includes orange pi 5 plus, Samsung NVME SSD M2 4 TB with Armbain os. 256 GB eMMC and Intel BE 200 Wi-Fi. There are no drivers for the intel BE 200 Wi-Fi or any instructions to make it work.

That will need mainline kernel since drivers for it have been merged into 6.5 but legacy is 5.10.y

However mainline support for RK3588 is still experimental. The decision if you prefer using the most recent WiFi or everything else mostly functional is up to you. There is nothing we can do further.

true... for be200 working we need the kernel in version at lest 6.1

Did you try any of the rolling builds from GitHub, to check it could work?

 

As DroZDI said: we need kernel 6.1 as a minimum.

I am using a Rock5a with an RK3588s, and it won't even work on the Edge version. I think the adapter is bound with Intel chipsets, AMD users also complained about this on Windows

Did anybody resolve this? I just picked up a 5 plus and want to go with either a be200 or a be1750x but I can't find any info about compatibility.
