Hello,

did anyone manage to get a working wifi under Linux?  
No matter if Manjaro, Ubuntu or any other distribution?

Please share your Uefi-setting.

Kernel has the the drivers, but cannot activate the hardware, as there are some features not active in the wifi-hardwares firmware, which the kernel likes to work with. At least that is how it seems.

THX

Hi,

I got wifi working in EndeavorOS, based on Arch-linux. This method should also work on Manjaro. All you need to do is build the following package from AUR: [AUR (en) - iwlwifi-ax101-dkms](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/iwlwifi-ax101-dkms). Bluetooth still doesn’t work, by the way.

Perhaps there are also versions of this fix for Debian/Ubuntu, but I don’t have those installed at the moment. Good luck!

Thx for your efforts and time. Unfortunately this fix does not work for me under manjaro.

I have tried Linux Mint 21.2 Edge (kernel 6.5) but the network (Ethernet and Wi-Fi) isn’t recognized… Did you something to make them work?
