VAR-SOM-AM43 Wireless LAN

WiLink WLAN module configuration

VAR-SOM-AM43 V2.X only:
When using VAR-SOM-AM43 v2.x, SOM has a WL183x module. In that case you should configure the WL183x module as follows (only in the first boot):

$ cd /usr/bin/wlconf/
$ ./configure-device.sh

Then choose the correct number of module and antennas on board

For example for WL1831:

root@varsomam43:/usr/bin/wlconf# ./configure-device.sh
