I am trying to install MX 23.6 on a new HP laptop but it doesn't find the wifi adapter. The adapter info is HP Wireless Realtek 8852BE-VT Wireless LAN WiFi 6 PCI-E NIC. Can someone help me determine how to find a driver so MX can use this adapter? Thanks.

If it's new, it may require the AHS edition to support recent hardware.
Edit: Yes, it seems our AHS edition is required, with its newer kernel and firmware.

Thanks for the help Stevo. The AHS edition does find the the wifi adapter. I should have known to try that. Thanks again for the help.
