Interesting, which Mediatek card are you using? I'm thinking about doing the same thing.

- mkopec 3y agoI've got this one from AsiaRF: https://www.asiarf.com/shop/wifi-wlan/wifi_mini_pcie/wifi6-4t4r-dual-bands-selectable-mpcie-card-ieee802-11ax-ac-a-b-g-n-2-4g-5ghz-aw7915-np1/ https://www.asiarf.com/shop/wifi-wlan/wifi_mini_pcie/wifi6-4... . OpenWRT has drivers for it in the repository, so it's pretty simple to set up. I'm happy with it, but I did have to get a heatsink for it, since otherwise it overheats easily. Since I got it they released a couple of dual-band dual-concurrent cards like this one: https://www.asiarf.com/shop/wifi-wlan/wifi_mini_pcie/wifi6e-3000-802-11ax-3t3r-dbdc-mpcie/ https://www.asiarf.com/shop/wifi-wlan/wifi_mini_pcie/wifi6e-... , which is pretty neat, since you don't need to get a separate card for 2.4GHz devices.
- aojdwhsd 3y agoThanks. There's a message on the page of the newer card "Main board Power Supply design please provide 3.3V 3.5A, minimum 3.3V 3A" - do you think this would be a problem for an APU2? One more thing - how is the signal range for you?
- mkopec 3y agoI imagine with a sufficient power supply it should not be a problem, at least I haven't had any problem with mine yet. I have a friend who's using one of their DBDC cards in an apu2 and he also hasn't had power issues yet. > One more thing - how is the signal range for you? With four 5dBi antennas it's sufficient to have >800mbps in every corner of my single bedroom apartment. Other than that I have no means to test, sorry :)
