basic wifi praxis - trinidad - 09-05-2017
There seems to be a lot of questions about wifi lately. What follows here are a few simple things to keep in mind when, and to do first, when asking about wifi problems.
1) Please remember that Linux wifi is in a constant state of improvement. Support is constantly changing.
2) If you are looking for pci card support for LL, please open a terminal and run this command first: lspci -vnn | grep 14e4
3) Go to this link: https://wikidevi.com/wiki/List_of_Wi-Fi_Device_IDs_in_Linux and look for the id that matches your card.
4) Drivers list here: https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers
5) If you are using USB rt2800usb is the most widely supported. Panda wireless runs this chip and is basically plug and play in Linux.
