HELP! WIFI not showing LMDE 6

Post by chrisumeran »

I am new to linux and I just recently installed LMDE 6. I really want to try it and I am falling in love with it already. But I am encountering a problem, wireless option is not showing. I can connect to the internet using cable but I don't want this scenario because I am carrying my laptop with me all the time. Please help me and thank you in advance.

P.S. I am dual booting with windows 11 btw. My wifi is working in windows.
