New to Proxmox and not a Linux wizard.

Installed Proxmox on a Seeed Studio ODYSSEY - X86J4105 with a NVMe drive using Ethernet port. Install went fine and I was able to add a few VM's, but none of them have access to the on-board Wi-Fi adapter.

I assume that the issue is that the "wlo2" hardware is not setup correctly. How do I get this working?

Most wifi chipsets won't allow to be bridged. So VMs bridged to your wifi wont work and they can't access the outside world.
A workaround would be to create a new bridge and setup your PVE to use NAT or route between your new bridge and your wifi. That way your host will route the packets between the new bridge and your wifi and because of that the new bridge doesn't need to be bridged to your wifi it should work.
