So there are many companies offering WiFi chips: Intel, Mediatek, Qualcomm, Realtek etc… who makes the best ones?
I am sorry if this question sounds stupid, because in the tech world it’s best to compare the products themselves, not the brand. However I am not familiar with how this sector of the hardware industry works and product lines of each company. So I hope your answers can enlighten me and others in the same boat.
If you plan to run or test Linux, stick to Intel. Some vendors tend to have proprietary drivers and do not contribute to the Linux kernel, meaning the code is not reviewed or packaged with most distributions.
