Hi, NXP:
We are looking for a wifi ic which can support Japan market , Currently we plan to use NXP RT10XX MCU as host cpu.
Here is the questions:
1. Does 88W8801 can suport wifi channle 14 in Japan ( We know 1-13 should be no any problem )
2. Does 88W8801 can support ad-hoc mode ?
3. Does nxp can provide 88W8801 driver for Microsoft azure rtos ?
BR,
Hello @chingchung
1. Does 88W8801 can suport wifi channle 14 in Japan ( We know 1-13 should be no any problem )
From 8801 datasheet, Table 14: Channel Frequencies Supported
channel 14 is not supported.
2. Does 88W8801 can support ad-hoc mode ?
No, it doesn't.
But 8801 supports Mobile AP interface, it can be used for Access Point.
3. Does nxp can provide 88W8801 driver for Microsoft azure rtos ?
No, we only have driver for FreeRTOS on MCU platform.

Hi, weidong_sun:
Thanks for the answer.
I has another question does 8801 wifi-direct function is equal to Ad-hoc mode ?

Hello @chingchung ,
>>I has another question does 8801 wifi-direct function is equal to Ad-hoc mode ?
Ad-hoc is different from wfd(WiFi direct), Ad-hoc is wireless networking. wfd is a point-to-point connection mode.
