Hi,
Just purchased Lenovo m70q machine and installed newest proxmox right away. lspci output:

00:14.3 Network controller: Intel Corporation Comet Lake PCH CNVi WiFi

When I log on into shell, is seems that debian recognises this adapter, I can bring if up, scan networks, but Proxmox GUI shows device as unknown:/ Why is that and how can I fix this?
 
hi,

we don't recommend using WiFi as it's less reliable and has some quirks [0]. you can still do it (with the warning mentioned before) but make sure to read the linked article carefully.

Proxmox GUI shows device as unknown:/ Why is that and how can I fix this?
also which part of the GUI do you mean?
