Oddly specific question, but can anybody confirm whether the AX210 (no vPro) wifi works with the AMD motherboards? I've seen some pretty bad reports about the realtek chip they're defaulting to on the AMD systems, and I already have the AX210, so if I could just keep using it, that would be ideal.


The ax210 does work in the ryzen motherboard but just ok. I had persistent errors relating to the card in dmesg and occasional disconnects.

The wifi that ships with the ryzen framework is made by MediaTek, not Realtek, and it's been working smoothly since I installed it.


I haven't seen issues bringing over an AX210 but I've barely used it so I'll have to keep an eye out for that.

I think just in its own right there are some AX210 Linux driver issues, particularly with 6E connectivity; I don't have a 6E network so I haven't really noticed.


Okay, good to hear on both counts. Thanks!


They're shipping Realtek? I thought they were shipping Mediatek? Big difference in my experience.
