How to know which Wifi mounted on?

[paolosantini]

In my Variscite som board I would know which Wifi device is mounted on the board (it has a sticker to identify the board, thus i'm not able to read the mark of the device).

Is it possible to understand which device is mounted reading, for example reading menuconfig or something else?

Hello Paolo Santini,

I would recommend looking at the manufacturer’s documentation or contacting their support to see if they can provide this information for sure.

Depending on the linux image running you should be able to run lshw -C network and it may provide some information but will depend a lot on the driver of the WiFi module and a family of wifi modules may have the same description even though the hardware is not exactly the same so don’t rely too much on this.

I hope this helps!

Regards,
