Thank you!
Without a blob, of course
Ah, bien.
I am guessing modern wifi features and speeds aren't important to you. Note that using an 802.11n device on a network with ac/ax devices will slow down all other devices traffic
Do you have an alternative blobfree card?
Our router is old and other devices here are too. Thats not a worry for me.
There are no blobless cards newer than wifi 4 afaik, wifi 5+ seem to be complicated enough they need updatable firmwares
OpenWiFi implemented a WiFi 6 (802.11ax) network card with FPGA, and its driver. Currently only available for subscription, but will be open source in future.
Oh fuck yeah
I'm pretty sure this still has proprietary firmware baked into it
