So, since the RK3588 are supposed to ship soon, I got the recommended Wifi card, what is the suggested way to get bluetooth working?
I own a pocket reform / RK3588 with stock Intel AX210 wifi/bluetooth card. In my case bluetooth would not work until I installed a second internal antenna. Up to then pairing was only possible within a distance of about 10…20cm.
I was unaware that the AX210 had bluetooth as well. Is the antenna the same as the wifi one? Is there a different one?
Afaik Bluetooth and wifi both use the 2.4 GHz freqzency range. It is one antenna for both.
I’m trying to get another antenna on my order now. If not, I’ll get one elsewhere.
I didn’t hear from others having that kind of problem - maybe I’m the only one. On the other hand the antenna doesn’t cost much. You should mount it about 90° or at least angled to the other one and it must not cover the heatsink.
