Hello,

I am looking for a laptop with the following specs:

Built-in GSM module Trusted platform module Support for these modules, as for the network (Ethernet + WiFi) for RHEL/Centos6.

I tested Lenovo W540, and the WiFi is not detected. lspci shows:

03:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 818b

I came across

http://askubuntu.com/questions/376732/thinkpad-t440p-wireless-network-contro... , so it turns out, this WiFi card is not supported (yet).

So, if anyone can recommend a working solution, please contact me, either here or off the list.

Thanks in advance,

https://hardware.redhat.com/Lenovo

or if not for Lenovo specifically

Hello,

I recently discovered - maybe as the last man on earth - that wifi cards on Lenovo's cannot ( always ) be replaced. it's Vendor ID, Device ID protected. Impractical and against the open-source spirit I think.
