This is more of a PSA than anything else. I was warned that the stock Wi-Fi card in the FW13 was problematic with certain routers. Thus far I hadn’t had any issues with it, it’s worked with every router I’ve used it on, no issues.

I recently set up starlink for a family member, and while testing it I kept having issues with my framework. I thought the starlink was crapping out, but my phone was fine on the same Wi-Fi. Then I realized that every time it quit working, I could get it to work again by power cycling the Wi-Fi in the framework. It would instantly work again.

It was failing every few minutes it felt like, though I didn’t get empirical with it.

For reference, I’ve got the 7840u, running Bluefin. And the starlink is a V3.

I think I’m still gonna stick with the stock card rather than upgrading right now. I have no need for Wi-Fi 7 right now, and it works everywhere else I need it to work.
