Debian Linux tests: ready to use.

I was tired of running the RTL8812AU drivers in Debian tests with DKMS so a friend suggested this card. Didn't know you can get Intel Wifi PCI cards? I've only seen laptops with them. In any case, Intel Wifi always worked with Linux (Debian testing) on my Thinkpads. Have a map; **apt install iwlwifi** (get the drivers first, huh?); switch off; pulled out my USB Wi-Fi whip; installed the map; loaded; no trouble; connected quickly (my RTL8812au connected 1-5 minutes?!); Bandwidth 80/5. It comes with a USB cable (for BT?) but I didn't install it (because I don't care). Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX200 160MHz, REV=0x340[.]Feb 04 15:20:33 R7-liebre NetworkManager[897]: <info> [1612480833.2822] device (wlan0): requesting interface status: mapping -> completed Feb 04 15:20:33 R7-liebre NetworkManager[897]: <info> dhcp4 (wlan0): activation: transaction start build quality seems good; the packaging was ok; the lead was fur; Might burn out in 2 weeks. Previously: 5 stars; does what it says.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
