#12Earlier quoted context omitted.
Could you please give the dmesg and/or other relevant id for your Realtek device? I'm getting tired of these Intel ax2?0 issues. I'm not much of a Bluetooth user but does it also work well?
I'm currently logged into Windoze for some work but I can tell you the card is a Realtek RTL8852AE. I can pull up the dmesg info later tonight when I reboot into linux if you want. Bluetooth works fine on it on Linux as well between my phone and my Sony headphones. No complaints from me on Fedora/Opensuse. Out of curiosity, what issues are you having with the Intel AX chip? I also have it on my Lenovo Intel work mach…
No that's fine, great info, cheers.

#13Ironically, I run a machine with a Realtek Wifi 6 chip and it works great on Linux, despite everything I read online was that Realtek is to be avoided on Linux and Intel should be the go-to. In a similar fashion, I was also luckier with Nvidia proprietary drivers on Linux than with AMD open source drivers. Seems like HW on Linux really is a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get.

#14I remember when the 8000 series radios were the gold standard for mobile wireless, all the newer AX cards have been nothing but pain and suffering.

Windows regularly puts and leaves radios in various low-power states that linux doesn't know about, so I generally need to cleanly shut down windows completely before booting into linux.

I think it is what you've been seeing.

do you by chance have any experience with the realtek ethernet? I too have seen the conventional wisdom around avoiding the realtek chips. I'm looking to build a linux box (hopefully) soon and filtering out mobos with realtek chips is difficult
