Hello jareguero,

Thank you for posting on Intel Community Forum.

To address your concern effectively, please share the information below.

1. Were you able to have wireless connection in a normal/expected performance before?

2. What Firmware and Kernel version are you using?

3. Is this a laptop or desktop system? If laptop, kindly share the full model

4. What adapter model do you have?

5. Is this the original adapter that came pre-installed in your system, or have you changed/installed a new adapter recently?

I look forward to your response.

Best regards

Thanks for the answer. The system is a desktop. It is a ASUS NUC. I change the card that come with it, and put a BE201 card. I am using a fedora 6.16.3 kernel and I try with a 6.17-rc3 also.  The card is recognised well. The problem is that the firmware is not found. The firmware that is trying to load, does not exist. I look the latest firmware git, but the firmware does not exist.

Hello jareguero,

Thank you for sharing this information. Could you please provide the full model of the NUC system that you are using?

Additionally, before you install/change the Intel Wireless Adapter in a system, you must contact the system manufacturer to determine if the Intel Wireless Adapters you plan to install is approved for use in your system and country. You are required to follow the manufacturer's post-approval requirements.

Since you already performed the integration, it is also important to understand that it may not work due to hardware or software compatibility issues or dependencies.

I highly recommend for you to reach out to ASUS to validate if the Wi-Fi card that you upgraded into is fully compatible.

If you have any questions, please let me know.
