I'm working with NRC7292 AND RASPBEERY 3.I got such an error in the Host Mode document, how can I fix it?

check that theres no conflict on SPI bus and interrupt pin, and check that your disable spidev overlay for newracom is set up correctly. The driver should load without this error

Hi,

I have the same error with a PI4 Compute module with AlfaNetwork newracom7292 HAT using bookworm. When I use the image provided by Alfanetwork based on bullseye, it works. My goals is to get it working with the latest version for better support.

dmesg shows:

cli_app shows:

but sudo ifconfig wlan0 up give the SIOCSIFFLAGS error.

Any help would be appriciated since I'm running out of ideas.

Thanks,

Hello @frobinette check my issue :
#102

Or go to the issue #60

You need to download the Board Data File from issue 60, this is a file that Alfa Networks is supposed to provide but they haven't ! Change your board data file and it should work without issue

Hi @vinc3yz! it worked!!

Thanks a lot!
