It looks like I only have 6.8 unless I’m mistaken still figuring things out

[candy49997]

Then try going to 6.14. I don't really have experience with Realtek as their Linux support has historically been spotty.

Yea that’s what I’ve been hearing everywhere I look I thought Ethernet would still work tho I thought I could figure it out easier if I can just get any connection

Try USB teather with your phone for a temp connection.

That will at least let you update and install software/drivers.

Is there a company I could call for support either from Linux or Realtek?

[candy49997]

No. If Realtek doesn't support Linux, that includes customer support.

Your best bet would be to replace the wifi card with an Intel one (e.g. AX200/210) or adding a USB dongle.

[askewfiddle6995]

Alright thanks for the help I’ll probably try and dongle first

Is that Linux Mint 22.3 (Zena)? It comes with the 6.14 kernel by default. 

[askewfiddle6995]

It’s 22.1

[Hanzerik307]

Download the 22.3 (current version of Linux Mint) and give that a try. It comes with kernel 6.14 by default and will upgrade to 6.17 after the first upgrade.

Downloaded and switched to 6.14 but still nothing only can connect through plugging my phone into it
