Hello friends,

After installing Loki 0.4.1 with Kernel 4.10... the wireless material or driver can't found, I udpate to kernel 4.13.1-041301-generic, always wireless don't found. With some command this is result :

And also :

As you can see there is a network "UNCLAIMED". According to Lenovo the Wireless is Intel Wireless 8265/8275.
So please help me to install and activate the wireless. thanks

It looks like the driver (probably rtl8821ce) is currently under development

[davemalone]

So for now I can not do nothing but wait. that's it i think.

[praseodym]

Maybe buying a 10 $ stick?!

[davemalone]

10$ to have the driver?
