Loading DR9074-Triband Driver on Linux 5.17.0 with ATH11K Support


Wallys recently announced ATH11K support for DR9074-TRIBAND on Linux, expanding its compatibility beyond Qualcomm platforms to various Linux embedded systems, including Ubuntu. In this article, we'll guide you through the step-by-step process of loading the driver for DR9074-Triband on Linux 5.17.0, showcasing its functionality with ath11k. The module is demonstrated to work well in both AP (access point) and STA (station) modes across the 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz bands.


Introduction to DR9074 (QCN9024):

The DR9074-Triband, powered by the Qualcomm Atheros QCN9024 chipset, stands as an advanced enterprise wireless module. It integrates a 4x4 MU-MIMO Dual Band Wireless Module, tailored for mobile access in high-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, voice communication, and data transmission. Key features include a maximum power of 23 dBm per chain, supporting data rates up to 4949Mbps. Operating in Tri-Band (2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz) with 4x4 WiFi 6E (802.11ax) and 4 spatial streams, it utilizes an M.2 E Key Interface and PCI Express 3.0 Interface. Applications range from security surveillance to commercial radio coverage, hotel wireless setups, and specialized scenarios.

Driver Loading Steps:


Compile the driver.

Enter the firmware folder and copy the card firmware.

Copy the compiled driver to the specified path.

Compile hostapd.

Configure hostapd compile options.

Finish configuration and start making and installing.

Check the successful installation of the current version, then run hostapd.

Verify the presence of the DR9074 card.

Confirm the functionality of 2.4G/5G/6G under AP mode.

Compile the tool for STA mode and configure compile options.

Complete compilation, check the version (returns as 2.10 for successful compilation), then run.

Confirm the functionality of 2.4G/5G/6G under STA mode.
