works | I little "PIA"! It surely works BUT AFTER PROPER DRIVER installing from "Driver Manager" or DKMS package. And there maybe a problem with 5ghz channels after. Look for your region freq support. After setup it will work just fine. |

A total headache: 5.9's rtw88 driver does not support this card ("rfe 2 not supported") and rtl8821ce (the other driver) has stability issues; connections randomly fail and require a reboot to fix; 5GHz doesn't work for my home network.
