 == Do your boards come with wireless/bluetooth? ==
-!WiFi / Bluetooth is not included on most of our boards and instead we have Mini-PCIe slots that accept !WiFi/Bluetooth radios. Gateworks has recently released a new Ventana model called the GW5910 which does incorporate a pre-certified Laird Sterling LWB !WiFi/BLE module down on the board. See here for more info on this [http://www.gateworks.com/product/item/ventana-gw5910-single-board-computer product]. Additional !WiFi info can be found here on this page as well [wiki:wireless here].

 === What wireless radios do you support? ===
 Typically radios with Atheros chipsets. Read more about the radios on our [wiki:wireless/wifi#radios Wireless Wiki Page].

+=== How do I handle multiple wireless radios on one SBC?
+
+When the board boots, typically wireless interfaces enumerate under wlan0, wlan1,wlan2 in Linux networking. However, across multiple boots, the assignment of wlan0 may change across different physical radios, causing complications. There are multiple ways to address this, such as researching in Linux the concept of persistent-net rules. An example is a file named  /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and using the MAC of the device defined the default device for wlan0, and wlan1.
