Hello! Yes, it is possible to find a Linux distribution that includes all necessary WiFi drivers without any hassle. Ubuntu is a great option, and you can choose versions that come pre-installed with full driver support. Just pick a recent release like Ubuntu 20.04 or 22.04, which typically includes everything you need. You won’t have to install anything manually—just plug in and enjoy!

Linux Mint 18.3 functioned smoothly on both a laptop and a desktop. It runs on Debian/Ubuntu and offers a nice user experience.

Consider trying to adjust settings under device drivers, enabling or installing custom drivers. After a restart, check for a Wi-Fi card listing and verify if Linux-compatible drivers exist. Intel occasionally provides Linux drivers for Wi-Fi chips that aren't natively supported.

I've attempted several times without success. Simply installing Ubuntu on its older partition has resolved the issue perfectly.

Have you looked at the Additional Drivers section in settings? Also, could you tell me what type of WiFi adapter you have?

Broadcom 802.11ac adapter installation worked after updating Ubuntu again. Probably related to using the trial version for some time. Uncertain about the exact cause.

No clear alternative exists to achieve such a balance between ease of use and customization.

You might want to test Ubuntu first before setting it up.

Searching for a more recent Ubuntu version or maybe Mint. Resolved the Wi-Fi problem by reinstalling Ubuntu.
