Tell me you haven't used Linux in the past ~20 years without telling me you haven't used Linux in the past ~20 years
Tell me you haven't used more than 2 or 3 pieces of hardware in the past 20 years without telling me you haven't used more than 2 or 3 pieces of hardware in the past 20 years.
I thought you thought about WiFi drivers because of the extra difficulty on not being able to search online, but I see now that this is just based on real experiences
My Intel Wireless AC 7265 on my Sony VAIO begs to differ. Certainly not brand-spanking new but it's AFAIK less than 10 years old. The speed would at some point drop under Void Linux.
At least my notebook doesn't support the newer wifi standards, that I would need at the university eduroam network.
I always have to hook up my phone and use usb-tethering
WPA3?
I don't remember if it was WPA 3 or WPA 2 Enterprise.
If the card supports at least WPA2, it should support WPA2 Enterprise as well. Only cards manufactured in the last few years support WPA3. I doubt they would enforce WPA3 only.
Recently it started working, but only sometimes and for about 5 min's and I can't reproduce it at all.
Tried installing firmware packages?
