Trouble with realtek wifi card

Help Section

Hi there,
I’m having trouble with using Wi-Fi on my HP laptop. Here is the output of pciconf (please excuse the uncivilized screenshot)

For my ThinkPad x200, adding the following lines to loader.conf worked

if_iwi_load=“YES”
wlan_load=“YES”
firmware_load=“YES”

, but I can’t figure out how to do the same for this HP Laptop 15-ef2126wm
any help is much appreciated

Update
I’ve also tried the rsu driver according to FreeBSD 13.0-RELEASE Hardware Notes | The FreeBSD Project to no avail.

Final Update
You need the rtw88 driver for this realtek card. Couldn’t make it work on Nomad. Cheers.

Realtek WiFi cards are a real pain in the *ss to get them set up (no pun intended). They barely work out of the box on FreeBSD or any other BSD out there. Their Ethernet cards work fine, though.
