Bring up wifi/BT with i.MX8 qm on yocto linux.

[swayamdhondge10]

Hello,

I am working with i.MX8 qm on yocto linux.

I tried flashing a prebuilt yocto image provided by NXP(imx-image-multimedia-imx8qmmek.wic.zst)
Can you suggest how I can bring up WIFI/BT with i.MX* qm with Yocto Linux OS. 
I have tried with two BT/WIFI chip is (1) Murata 1CX M.2. and (2)  Laird Connectivity’s ST60-2230C.

Hi @swayamdhondge10, 

Please try with the following commands described on the iMX Linux Users Guide:

# For all the Wi-Fi modules:
modprobe moal mod_para=nxp/wifi_mod_para.conf
$connmanctl
connmanctl> enable wifi
connmanctl> scan wifi
connmanctl> services /* This should list of the network. For example wifi_c0e4347f5053_4a62726f_managed_psk*/
connmanctl> agent on
connmanctl> connect wifi_c0e4347f5053_4a62726f_managed_psk /* Enter Passphrase */
Agent RequestInput wifi_c0e4347f5053_4a62726f_managed_psk Passphrase = [ Type=psk, Requirement=mandatory ] Passphrase?
connmanctl> quit

Let me know if this works.

Have a great day!

output: wifi is not available 

connmanctl>scan wifi

Please guide on this issue.

Hi @swayamdhondge10, 

Please try with the following manual to properly set your Wi-Fi module.

I hope this information will be helpful.

Best regards, Brian.
