does the pinetab "just worK"?

[attachment=2802 Wrote:zer0sig pid='118415' dateline='1688321128']... The PIneTab 2 out of the box is better than other brand new PINE64 releases in terms of stability, but wifi is not right (I think there are some solutions in the rpi community for this wifi that we can adapt from, eventually) and neither of the 2 popular external wifi cards I bought for the purpose are usable... yet. ...
Mine arrived today and looks good but I was a bit surprised that the WiFi doesn't work and I cannot see a simple solution.

I have a cheap USB WiFi dongle which worked immediately, but having this hanging off the side with a USBC adaptor, is far from ideal. I'm looking forward to a simple (for me) driver download for the internal WiFi. B'tooth would be nice as well.

Edit: 3 days later, I am more and more impressed. I bought this to replace a broken Linux tablet but it is likely that it will replace my HP EliteBook i5 laptop, as well.
