I think if you run `strings` on the WLAN firmware you'll get a build ID with the chip name in it, that might be a good indication of what the firmware name should be. I would suggest trying to find some other 4359 firmware and testing your device with it. If it works, then it's definitely fine to use the same firmware name. If it doesn't, then you might need different firmware names, or it might just be a case for board-specific firmwares. - Hector
