Hi folks,
I try to use Wireless-N 7260(Model: 7260HMW AN) on my custom board with Wifi property.
My processor is AM3358 TI Cortex-A8(ARMv7). I connected its to through USB interface.
The kernel version is 5.10.168-ti-r64. I can able to activate bluetooth propery this device. I scanned the nearby bluetooth devices.
I blacklisted the bluetooth and btusb before this experiment.
I also extract the iwlwifi-7260-17.ucode file to /lib/firmware folder.
But i couldn't activate Wifi with this device. What i need to do?
Best regards.
My .config is
CONFIG_IWLWIFI=y
CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TRACING=y
CONFIG_IWLDVM=y
CONFIG_IWLMVM=y
CONFIG_CFG80211=y
CONFIG_MAC80211=y
CONFIG_FW_LOADER=y

Hello rd_monster,
Thank you for posting in the Intel® Communities Support.
Unfortunately, the interactive technical support for Intel® Wireless-N 7260 is already at End of Interactive Support(EOIS) and has been discontinued. Due to this product being discontinued, Intel Customer Service no longer supports inquiries for it, but perhaps fellow community members have the knowledge to jump in and help. You may also find the Discontinued Products website helpful to address your request. Thank you for understanding.
Best regards,
Jay B.

Thank you for informing @JayB_Intel .
I'm curious, Is the .ucode driver file usable within Cortex-A8 architecture or is it specific for Intel processors?
Best regards.
