Now the wifi driver is working fine at 2.4G, and we're debugging the 5G and testing its performance.\
Below file is an instruction for how to enable WIFI module on R2:\

And please use the following command to connect a wifi AP:

1. wpa\_passphrase "yyy" "xxxxx" >/etc/wpa\_supplicant.conf
2. vim /etc//etc/wpa\_supplicant.conf\
   /etc/wpa\_supplicant.conf\
   network={\
   ssid="yyy"\
   key\_mgmt=WPA-PSK\
   proto=WPA2\
   pairwise=CCMP\
   group=CCMP\
   \#psk="xxxxx"\
   psk=90e3ac2dd8a92432f31d65e4f3297962ede273e85a5c4407ee4f7ffc052fd8bb\
   }
3. /sbin/wpa\_supplicant -i wlan0 -B -c /etc/wpa\_supplicant.conf
4. dhclient wlan0
