Hi!
I am in the same situation! Unfortunately, Intel wifi cards don't have
free drivers so you'll have to go with a USB dongle.
I myself got one. Have a look on h-node if you can't afford a
ThinkPenguin dongle, some models hardly cost anything and work with
Trisquel out of the box.
Let me know if you need any help in choosing one,
Khoi

Hi!
I just upgraded to a new computer and immediately installed Trisquel!
While everything seems to be working fine, my wireless card doesn't
seem to be recognized
My laptop is a Dell Latitude E6420 and the network card is Intel
Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection (that's what the
command "lspci | grep net" gave me back)
I know that some people will recommend me to buy the usb stick
ThinkPenguin but before even thinking about that, I was wondering if
anybody had experienced the same problem and if a fix is available ?
I don't want to have to install a non-free driver or distro but at the
same time I understand that Wi-Fi is a big problem when it comes to
non-free drivers.
Thanks
