Hello,

My name is Cristian Aravena Romero, [1]Free Software enthusiast in
Chile. My _Notebook_ has a WiFi card [2]"Intel=C2=AE Centrino=C2=AE Advance=
d-N
6235" running from version 3.2 of the Linux kernel and above; and also
occupies the firmware "iwlwifi-6000g2b-ucode-18.168.6.1.tgz". The
complete technical information of this WiFi card is [3]here.

Dual-Band

I am interested in buying on ebay.com or aliexpress.com a new WiFi
card that supports Bluetooh, 802.11ac and most importantly, only use
Free Software, without firmware *PRIVATIVE*

I was reviewing the internet and found an [0]"Intel -> 8265AC", and
found it on [2]aliexpress.com but Intel has a bad policy regarding its
firmware. That is why in the first instance you will be discarding.

It's not what I'm looking for!!!...

You could give me a link of a modern WiFi card that works as I said,
with Bluetooh, 802.11ac and only use Free Software * I can buy on
ebay.com or aliexpress.com?

Thank you!

Attentive to their requirements,
