I check the spec and it has a wifi chip but the os can’t see it.

I had a wifi toggle on windows 11 when I got the PC and also when I used a mint USB boot. Driver manager sees nothing to update or install.

The mint community page has failed to post my question a few times so now I’m here.

    I bought a cheap-ass Asus laptop knowing that the installed wifi module was not supported by linux. So I bought a new wifi module that had linux support for like $20 and swapped it in.

    This is the one I got, but I’m sure there are more like it. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SH6GV5S
