There is no such device in "ip a" or "iw list". I have enabled orangepi-5-ap6275p in armbian-config and full firmware package. Also installed the "firmware-ath9k-htc" package, but nothing helps. "modprobe ath9k_htc" returns that there is no such module.

Its not enabled in config.

1. Sent PR to enable it https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/main/config/kernel/linux-rk35xx-vendor.config#L2885

2. Upgrade to vendor 6.1 kernel as we will not maintain 5.10.y anymore (there its also not enabled)

3. Use nightly kernel builds / tell us to sent update to stable repository

yes ath9k-htc is not enabled .

You can also try to build your kernel and enable it.

 

Or build the module on your existing 5.10, I did that on the ath6k in the past.
