Hans, I found your earlier message on this, but it does not give ME clear instructions on getting the pieces together:

On Fedora you should just be able to install the appropriate firmware

currently has the ability to redistribute it currently otherwise it

Even with the right firmware available, I'm not sure things have
progressed from earlier in the year, where the issues with the brcmfmac
driver "stopping" on BPi/Cubietruck, with AP6210 hardware, needed
resolution.
ISTR, some discussion on the sunxi mailing list about this again
recently where they were talking about error recovery on the sdio/mmc
side of things.... Not sure any of this made it upstream to the kernel
yet.
Hans would probably be able to say what should be working now. ;)
When dropping the right nvram file into place, and adding this:
https://github.com/jwrdegoede/linux-sunxi/commit/08c7babbb4bd0f9521a6713799a84349cb9dac92
patch to the kernel the cubietruck wifi should work reliable.
Although this patch fixes things, and is safe, we may end
up with a slightly different fix upstream, that is currently
being discussed.
Where is the nvram file described and how to put it in place.
http://dl.cubieboard.org/public/Cubieboard/benn/firmware/ap6210/nvram_ap6210.txt
I cannot resolve that fqdn. I have had this problem in the past with dl.cubieboard.org; for some reason it is just not available over here.
That is a problem, try using wget from some shell on another box?
And save it as /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43362-sdio.txt
Does that URL tell how to do this?
There is nothing to tell, download the file and save it as
/lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43362-sdio.txt on the root
partition of your cubietruck.
Regards,
Hans
