Linux drivers needed

Good afternoon everyone!

I am putting centOS 9.x on this with KDE desktop. That said, the most recent package does not have the drivers for the WIFI adapter. Does anyone know the specific adapter used so we can find them? Maybe even someone has the drivers? Thank you!

Currently we do not have relevant drivers for Linux systems

How is this even possible? What wifi device are you using? Maybe I can go right to the manufacturer.

Thank you,

Jason

Can you try running the commands lspci and lsusb in the terminal ? One of these should identify the wifi chipset.

I tried that Brandoman, and the only wifi chipset i see is a realtek Bluetooth chipset. Let me jump on that computer and I'll post the output

Looking at the USB side, it shows a realtek semiconductor, however in the lshw this shows up as bluetooth, not ethernet.

If the version received is with an Ethernet interface, then the Ethernet is:
