88W8997 source code download for Linux

[mkk87]

Hi, I'm looking for the latest source code for 88W8997 for use with Linux. Ideally would support 5.4 or 5.10 kernel.

Thanks,

Hi, thanks for that info.

Is it at all possible to also get the source code to build the WiFi firmware binary?

Thanks,

Mike
