    My computer would often have trouble connecting to WiFi on Windows 11, literally to the point that the WiFi option wasn’t showing up at all. I switched that computer to Linux late December and I have not had that problem yet.

      In the long time before now, we had many problems with wi-fi. Now we don’t speak the word. Ethernet cable is the only way for connectivity.

      I recently drilled a hole through 21cm reinforced concrete, just to avoid wi-fi.

      My Windows (10) broke Bluetooth in an update over two years ago and the situation has not changed. Never had a problem with Linux on the same machine (dual boot).

      If “it just works” was ever true on Windows, those days are behind us.
