Hi everybody,
I’m quite new to the game and just installed ipfire on my ZBOX CI329 nano sucessfully (well, on the 2nd try to be honest). I found out that the CI329 nano uses the Intel® Wireless-AC 9462 for Wifi connection.
A close up of the hardware can be seen here: https://www.elefacts.de/test/zotac_zbox_ci329_nano_im_test_6.jpg
My green and my red zone is working just fine, I just came across difficulties getting my blue zone up and running. WLAN AP shows me that everything is up and running and I also could/can chose the wifi adapter for the blue zone during the intial setup. But as I could not find any SSID I took a closer look and realized that my wireless card might not have been recognized completely and just a standard from the kernel is displayed - or maybe it is not supported?
I see that Intel has released drivers (for kernels 4.14+), but I am not proficient enough to know if they would work or how I could install them onto ipfire/iwlwifi. (Intel drivers: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005511/network-and-io/wireless.html)
