Sorry if this is slightly off topic, I searched for communities about tech support on here and couldn’t find anything that wasn’t dead in the water. Basically I want to use WPA3 on my Network, however my Windows partition doesn’t support WPA3 for some reason. I only keep that piece of trash around for school work. My Fedora Linux partition can use WPA3 just fine so I assume this is a driver issue. Is there any way to use Linux WiFi drivers on Windows?
(inb4 how the turntables)
I don’t know if this is possible or even advisable, but theoretically maybe the NIC could be hardware passed through to a linux VM, and then configure the host to use the guest VM as a gateway? It’d be kind of a nuts solution but it’d get points for creativity. Guest VM takes hardware control of the NIC and the host connects to the VM like it’s a separate device on the same network.
Something like the question posed here
You’d have to solve a few separate problems that might not be worth it, unfortunately I don’t have these answers:
i don’t know about advisable, but i know it works because i do this.
intel won’t allow you to get wifi 6 speeds in ap mode with their linux driver; so i created a windows vm with pci passthrough to use the windows driver to get wifi 6 speeds. it passes along the connection via dns & ip masquerade to the soft router (also a vm) via kvm/qemu based software defined networking; so technically the connections from my laptop & smartphones go through 2 different networks before making it to my isp.
that’s how my software router works and i always thought of it as hacky; this is the first time i’ve heard/thought otherwise.
