---+ Getting Started This page will guide you to add Wi-Fi cabability to your platform. The required steps depend on which level of platform support that is currently provided by HD Wireless. Conceptually, the linux driver could be used on any host platform that supports Linux. Initially testing has been focused on a Linux PC with support for SDIO via the SD card slot. Further platforms such as Frescale iMX6 will be supported. <span style="font-size: 19.89px; line-height: 1em; background-color: transparent;"><a name="Add_Wi_Fi_support_to_a_custom_li_SPB209A"></span><span style="font-size: 19.89px; line-height: 1em; background-color: transparent;"></a></span><span style="color: #630000; font-size: 19.89px; line-height: 1em; background-color: #f6f6f6;">Add Wi-Fi support to a custom linux-based platform</span> If you want to add Wi-Fi support to a custom linux-based platform using a kernel version 3.19 or later, you should perform the following steps: 1 <span style="background-color: transparent;">Get the SPB209A</span><span style="background-color: transparent;"> Wi-Fi device, see </span><span style="background-color: transparent;"><a target="_top" href="http://www.hd-wireless.se/"></span><span style="background-color: transparent;">http://www.hd-wireless.se</span><span style="background-color: transparent;"></a></span> 1 Download the Linux kernel 3.19 or later from the appropriate Linux distribution.
