Chip-Details
WAV600 aka WRX600 is a family of 4-stream WLAN-SoCs by Intel used in 4 models.
The dual band version is used in the 5530 and 6660 to provide 2x2 WLAN in both bands.
The 2.4GHz and 5GHz versions are used together in the 7590ax and 7590axv2 to provide 4x4 WLAN in both bands.
Firmware
This is a subset of the Binary-Files section, filtered for '*WAV6*' or '*WRX6*' or '*Metalink*' binaries or descriptions.
Daily updated index of all binaries found scanning Firmware-Probes . Last update: 2025-01-27 05:40 GMT.
The label (static) in the Binary column shows there are other objects in this wiki using this name.
The Mod column shows the amount of models using the respective file. Click the column header to sort by this number.
You can hover or click a possible Link in the Type column to see the target of that link.
