WIFI Module 5BK uses the same chipset (Realtek RTL8821CU) as WIFI Module 5B and it is 100% compatible. IEEE 802.11ac/a/b/g/n WLAN and Bluetooth combo module with onboard 2.4Ghz and 5.8Ghz Dual band antenna.

The only minor difference from the previous 5B model is that doesn’t have a CD-ROM mode. So, we can skip the USB-mode switch tweak.

It works with the ODROID series and is compatible with Android and Linux. (Please update your OS to the latest version if it doesn’t work.)
