Description:
This machine needs proprietary firmware for wireless card - on Debian, non-free firmware-iwlwifi is needed. The manufacturer has a list of supported wireless cards, which contains only the Intel card. Despite this, I replaced it with Qualcomm Atheros QCA9565 and it worked. I replaced the Intel Wireless card with a Qualcomm Atheros QCA9565 to use with linux-libre.
