Getting my Intel NUC's Wifi into Proxmox and VM's

[Da9L]

I've just installed Proxmox on my new Intel NUC8i5BEH and it is working quite well. However my NUC's build in Wifi is not visible and I wish to use this for the Virtual Machines on it. Is that possible? The chipset is called Intel® Wireless-AC 9560. I'm not very experienced with Linux so I bear with me. I found an old topic about it, but instead of resurrecting that one I created a new one. That topic though something about a "non-free" repository was mentioned. Where do i find these? I know how to add them to sources.list, but not sure what it means exactly

I think i got my Wifi working now in Proxmox. I followed this guide from Intel and furthermore did some setup with the wpa_passphrase command and /etc/network/interfaces. My wifi now gets an IP address and I can ping it from another computer on the same LAN.

This means that the only thing i need to do now is to make Proxmox use that interface instead of the ethernet one, including VM's on it.

How do i do that?

Anyone? I honestly don't think this is too complicated, but since I don't know linux nor proxmox that much I need some advice

Wifi interfaces do not work as bridge_ports (in station mode a.k.a. client mode) - if you want to use your wifi as outbound connection you would probably be best advised to go for a routed setup:

I hope this helps!
