Wave share boards are solid. I use one with a rp2040 and circular touchscreen in one of my products and it’s great.

Would you be able to make a keyboard with this to use 2.4ghz? Is there any firmware that would allow that at the moment that this could run?

I don't think there's any firmware support for keyboard over IP (I assume this is what you want rather than a different protocol over a wifi network), though zmk does Bluetooth support I believe.

Oh is it not the 2.4ghz that is used for other non Bluetooth wireless peripherals? I have much more stability using them over Bluetooth. Bluetooth almost always causes issues for me. Repeated inputs and dropped connections etc.

Huh, I guess you could; you're right, they are. I still can't think of any open source firmware with support for it.

Damn. Wish i was better at low level programming, as I'd attempt it myself

There are some open source firmware implantations for some peripherals with wifi dongles, perhaps they could be instructive?
