Hello,

intend to use the  Murata type 2AE module , containing the CYW4373E  wifi chip.

Could you tell if  RFMON, monitoring mode is supported with the CYW4373E?

When reading below forum threads, I guess monitoring mode is supported. But I would like to have confirmation

there are no hardware restrictions on the CYW4373E.

There are no hardware restrictions, but the firmware should support it. We will check if it is supported for CYW4373E and let you know
