Do I need to do anything differently in lrd-11 release?
There was a change in kernel 5.19 and higher, lrd-11 is built against the kernel 6.1 kernel backports), where there is a requirement to add cfg80211 to your image as a module (m) in the base platform kernel configuration. It must not be left out and must not be included as built-in (y).
- Networking support->Wireless->cfg80211 - wireless configuration API
