How to install WiFi drivers for NixOs?
I found this GitHub link that contains instructions on how to compile the driver for most distributions. However, they require usage of make install so I don't think that would work on NixOs.

The Perfect Laptop
I have the older version with the 6900HS but it’s more or less the same. I’ve run pop_os as well as fedora on it. Everything works great but you’ll have to compile the wifi driver https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89.

Using my usb wifi stick?
Realtek drivers are such a PITA. Check out this guys Github: Link he has instructions on how to get the most common realtek chipsets working. Please note, kernel updates will break the drivers for all realtek workarounds and you will have to redo this after each update.

preinstalled wi-fi driver is unstable and i can't seem to install different wi-fi driver. any help? am still new to linux.

I want to switch from windows 10 to linux but i have few concerns
afaik linux mint has drivers specifically for that wifi card, there was a github that took the driver from linux mint to run it on any other distro, idk how it ended up https://github.com/bserem/Realtek-RTL8822x-Linux
- Can't get Wifi on Linux
- install wifi drivers on notebook

Use wifi during debian installation
TL;DR - You have to manually install the firmware by getting it from this github.
- Extremely Slow Wifi
