Wich PCI-E W-Lan cards for UTM Home?

Hi Meghan,

The only internal WiFi supported is one of the Atheros PCI cards that's used in the SG 1x5w series.

in this thread https://community.sophos.com/products/unified-threat-management/f/wireless-security/56517/software-appliance-with-wlan

there is some Sophos SG125W Hardware listed with

0b:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Atheros Communications Inc. Device [168c:003c]

So I think devices with chipset QCA988x/986x using 168c:003c PCI ID

But the question is, are the drivers for SG hardware in software image?

P.S. Maybe this one is interesting too http://skyline-bw.com/wordpress/2016/11/20/compex-wle200nx-mit-sophos-utm/

"...  are the drivers for SG hardware in software image?" - They must be, otherwise how would people have gotten internal WiFi cards to work?

I think the Compex WLE600VX has that ID. Whether it works or not is another matter. I have one on order so I guess I'll know soon enough.

To what I've read on the internet the Compex WLE600VX was working. According to https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Rivet_Networks_Killer_Wireless-AC_NIC_1420

that ID 168c:003c should be Rivet Networks Killer Wireless-AC NIC 1420. I'll give that a try too, if that thing is arriving from china. Because I need NGFF the Compex isn't suitable for me.

Hi Alex, after a false start with the Compex card, I've ordered a Dell Killer 1420. It is a half mini-PCIe card. I believe there is also a NGFF version which might be the one you are waiting on. Does yours have Bluetooth too? I was concerned that this might be a problem. It has the correct ID, at least. Mine is also coming from China. Will report back. Might be a while, though.
