Detection of WIFI on Wifi/Bluetooth combo minipcie card


Hi,

I don't have drivers for it, but I suppose it's just something generic.
I'm wondering if there's a way to see what could it be?
I've looked through dmesg but all I can see are some bluetooth details, nothing on wifi.

Where should I start looking? and how?

Maybe there's something to do before I go and switch the card to something else :/

You have not provided enough information for us to aid in solving the problem. Which Gnu/Linux, System specifications, device specific information. If you attempt to use 'lspci' then be sure to use 'lspci -vv' to get verbosity.

FYI: I suggest that you look at 'How to Ask Questions the Smart Way' so in the future your queries provide information that will aid us in diagnosis of the problem or query.
