Partial answer to this:
I bought a TP-LinkNano 2-in-1 AC600 USB adapter (very small) and it works with Fedora on my Pinebook Pro. I tested WiFi and Bluetooth and they both work. Don't know how this helps the Pine Tab 2 though, there doesn't seem to be a driver in any Arch based ARM distribution I think.
This is what it looks like on Manjaro on my Pinebook Pro in dmesg:
