Chuwi Herobook Air no Wifi working

Post by Gloster96 »

Hello to all. I bought a Chuwi Herobook Air to have a laptop on which to install only Linux Mint. I installed it but unfortunately it doesn't detect any wifi. With the lshw command, no network cards are exited. But bluetooth works. I do not know how to do. Could somebody help me out? It has an Intel Celeron N4020 processor. Thanks to those who will help me.

Hi guys and thanks for the answer.

I solved the WIFI problem by downloading some "drivers" for the notebook network card, which are not included in the current Mint kernel. I am attaching the commands to execute, so as to help someone if they need it.

Code: Select all

git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723du.git
cd rtl8723du/
make all
sudo make install
