This chapter describes platform-dependent information and instructions. For example, you will get different benchmark results on different platforms.
For general usage of Wi-Fi, such as command to configure DHCP or static IP and so on, please refer to Wi-Fi chapter.
Note
Genio 350-EVK in IoT Yocto supports WPA2 by default since v21.3 release.

Install Wireless (Wi-Fi) Card on Genio 350-EVK
The MT7663 M.2 card supports WiFi5.
Important
IoT Yocto - Genio 350-EVK does not support MT6631 companion chip. It only supports MT7663 modules. Module AW-CB451NF is used in this installation guide. You can find more configuration details in MT7663 Module.
Important
Bluetooth Support on MT7663 Across IOT Yocto Releases
Before IOT Yocto V23.0: Bluetooth functionality is not supported on MT7663. Only Wi-Fi connectivity features are available.
IOT Yocto V23.1 to V24.x: BlueDroid-based Bluetooth functionality is supported on MT7663, but is available only to licensed customers.
IOT Yocto V25.0 and later: BlueDroid-based Bluetooth functionality for MT7663 is deprecated and no longer supported.
Important
The pin assignment of the MT7663
M.2 module AW-CB451NF
is not compatible with the standard M.2 E Key.
Consequently, the pin assignment of the Genio 350 EVK is also not compatible with the standard M.2 E Key.
Please keep this in mind when you are considering replacing the module or making modifications to your new boards.
There is a M.2 2230 slot on Genio 350-EVK board. It is reserved for wireless card. In the picture below, you can find 3 cables connect to the antennas on Genio 350-EVK and MT7663 card. These cables use I-PEX MHF4 (IPEX4) connectors. You should be able to find these 3 cables comes along with the Genio 350-EVK, which just fit the distances between the antennas and wireless card. (There are 2 black cables for Wi-Fi, and the other gray cable for Bluetooth).
There are other MT7663 modules with 2 antennas instead of 3 antennas. In this case, simply leave the gray cable unconnected.

A MT7663 M.2 SDIO Module is Installed on Genio 350-EVK.
Note
Interface name in Linux OS may be different by modules. It should be wlan0 for MT7663 SDIO module.
