RE: iPXE over WiFi // 12-2018 Any Update?
Drivers are written to talk with a specific hardware, and each platform needs it's own way of writing those drivers to work.
It seems you are referring to windows drivers - and that can not be used - in any way - in an iPXE context.

And the same SCCM is not relevant.

Wifi in iPXE is not really cared for, one reason is that new devices requires large firmware blobs which would make it unusable.
And still you would need to boot that iPXE binary from a USB device anyway.

One thing that does work tho is to use Android or iPhone in USB thetering mode, and an iPXE build with the acm--ncm drivers.
A gotcha here tho is that it will be on a routed network, so you won't be able to control iPXE vi DHCP, but must go with embeded scripts for configuration.
