Hello, I have a problem with dongle USB wifi BrosTrend AC1L.

Before write I try the dongle on Ubuntu and it work well

In first installation on Proxmox 7.0.8 I had a error for pve-headers not present. So I write to support and they write me to about install pve-headers

So I do:
install pve-headers ok
install driver ok
lsusb ok (i see the nic AC1L)
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 0bda:b812 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL88x2bu [AC1200 Techkey]
ip a ok (I see the nic AC1L)
5: wlxa09f10bea73e: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000
link/ether a0:9f:10:**:**:** brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
GUI proxmox network nic NO
file /etc/networking/interfaces NO

Can you halp me? Why I see the NIC whit "ip a" command and I don't see it on proxmox?
How can I resolve?
Thanks

Hi,

a thing that you could try is to create a section for the new NIC in /etc/network/interfaces yourself. After that, the PVE will probably show it in the web interface.
