Hells bells, my old brain's not too sharp. After some simple poking
around  http://dl.cubieforums.com/patwood/ap6210.zip has moved to 
http://dl.cubieforums.com/files/patwood/ap6210.zip, and guess what? The
zip contents look same as files at
http://dl.cubieboard.org/public/Cubieboard/benn/firmware/ap6210/

So the question is now using the SUNXI kernel in the default arch arm
linux filesystem tar ball, as used in the SOA cubietruck installer, can
wifi be made to work?  Perhaps a Cubietruck owner who has now got SOA
working can try this on a running system as root, e.g:

Install the ap6210 firmware:


Code:
--------------------
    
  cd /lib/firmware
  wget -U 'Mozilla/5.0' http://dl.cubieforums.com/files/patwood/ap6210.zip
  unzip ap6210.zip
  rm ap6210.zip
  
--------------------


load the module


Code:
--------------------
    
  modprobe ap6210
  
--------------------


See if wireless device, wlan0, appears in ip link list. e,g:


Code:
--------------------
    
  ip link 
  ...
  
--------------------


Restart soa-web.service and see if wireless page appears on SOA web
interface and device can be configured:


Code:
--------------------
    
  systemctl restart soa-web.service 
  
--------------------
