I bought a new Lenovo Ideapad 5 Pro that ships with this network card, full name:
Realtek RTL8852AE WiFi 6 802.11ax PCIe Adapter
Ubuntu (or any other linux distribution) does not recognize or provide drivers for this wireless card. Please tell me if there is a viable solution to this problem, or I will have to wait for an unknown amount of time until the driver is provided.
I already searched through askubuntu and found this Network driver for Realtek 8852 20.10
but the guide is very hard for me to understand, they use an unofficial driver from a kind git user, and say that I will need to rebuild it every time my system gets updated. Another big concern for me is, even if I were to do all this, how can I get it installed in the first place? The driver itself requires some packages that I would need to install first, which I cannot do without internet connection. My laptop does not have an ethernet port, only wireless card that does not work. I am desperate to make Linux work on my main machine and I don't want to give up.
sudo apt update && sudo apt -y install git build-essential linux-headers-generic
Are there any errors? If not, I will propose a step-by-step answer.
