Wireless Networking / PC Engines ALIX / ALIX System Board / ALIX 6F2 System Board (LX800 / 2 LAN / 1 miniPCI / 1 miniPCIE / 2 SIM)

Two SIM socket version of the ALIX 2D2 routerboard which accepts larger Wifi modules (DCMA82 / DNMA92).

Note: wi-fi cards using PCI express will NOT work

This is a new standard for small size radio modules, using PCI Express and USB 2.0 connectivity. On ALIX, only USB 2.0 connectivity is supported. Some manufacturers of radio modules (compatibility not tested by PC Engines):
• Ericsson
• Novatel
• Option
• Sierra Wireless

• Modem modules based on Qualcomm chipsets don't seem to work reliably with the AMD CS5536 USB controller - consider limiting to 12 Mb/s USB 1.1 mode. Ericsson modules don't observe the reset signal, difficult to get a proper reset on reboot.
