Recommendations for good motherboards and Wifi dognles that are Linux compatible

01. Oktober 2025 - 10:00

I’m currently planning a PC build that I want to use Linux with, probably Bazzite. I was looking at a motherboard but I realized that its Wifi chipset (Mediatek 7922) was known to cause issues with Linux, so I’ve decided to look at some motherboards without Wifi and then buy a separate Wifi dongle.

I was wondering if anyone has any tips for good but relatively cheap motherboards without Wifi? Also, I would also like recommendations for Wifi dongles that are Linux compatible. Thanks!

Steam download speeds consistently half or lower on Arch Linux (MT7921K), but Windows hits full speed

01. Oktober 2025 - 09:31

Hi everyone,

I'm having a persistent issue with Steam download speeds on Arch Linux. Some details:

  • Wi-Fi: MediaTek MT7921K (mt7921e)
  • Kernel: 6.16.8-zen3-1-zen
  • OS: Arch Linux x86_64, KDE Plasma 6.4.5 (Wayland)
  • Hardware: Ryzen 7 5700X, Radeon RX 9070 XT
  • Symptom: Steam downloads rarely reach full speed (18.5 MB/s), usually half or less. In Windows, full speed is consistent.
  • Gaming: Random lag spikes appear online, as if ping jumps.

What I’ve tried:
