Driver needs firmware

Hello,

I'm trying to configure WTware on Raspberry 400.
When I set up the WiFi, it says Driver needs firmware, go to wtware.com/fw and download brcm\brcmfmac43456-sdio.bin
Unfortunately there is only brcmfmac43455-sdio, tried it but it doesn't work.

Thanks!

Recent wtware version should work on Raspberry without external firmware.

I'm having the exact same problem on a Raspberry Pi 400 using WTware v6.0.22, works fine on the Pi 4 so I'm guessing there must be some hardware difference?

Ups. Raspberry 400 is not Raspberry 4. Newer WiFi chip needs newer firmware?

Try this: http://wtware.com/testing/202011191726.zip

And show me the log, please.

Hi,

is Pi 400 supported now in stable?

Thanks, S. Schmid

Don't know. We have no Pi 400.
