MemberCan’t connect to wifi, hardware or software problem?
One laptop can’t connect to internet. The others at the same time do, so wifi is working fine.
Sometimes this laptop does connect, most of the time it can’t. Even after numerous automatic tries.
Wonder is the hardware broken? Or is it a software problem?

MemberHi Tixel, if you are able,
means the wireless adapter sits in a socket,
replace it with intel.
driver mt7921e for that device is known to be buggy.Another solution is to use a USB wifi dongle.

marcelocripeMemberHello Tixel.

Wonder is the hardware broken? Or is it a software problem? How find out?Use the “antiX WiFi Switch” program, click on the Ceni button to reset the configuration file, and try connecting to your wireless network in the same way I demonstrated in the video “55 – Conectar na internet com a rede com fio ou com a rede sem fio no antiX Linux com o Ceni” (55 – Connecting to the internet with a wired or wireless network on antiX Linux with Ceni).
To read the subtitles in your language, turn on the subtitles, then click on the gear, Subtitles C/C, Translate automatically and click on your language to activate the automatic translation of the subtitles.
The texts you will read are automatic translations that are offered by YouTube from my texts in Brazilian Portuguese.
