I have the same X13 Gen 2 AMD 5850U w/ 32GB RAM, and generally agree it is a great laptop. Much quieter than my previous X270 where I even had custom fan curves.

It works perfectly for me on Fedora 35 (kernel 5.15), with consistent speeds around 800-900Mbps. The AP is an ASUS RT-AX86U.

Also somewhat surprisingly, while Intel AX200/201 is faster as it supports 160MHz (I had it before), the MT7961 has been more stable for me, both speed-wise and bug-wise, so far anyway. But YMMV.

> Luckily it's only M.2 so you can replace it with something like the AX201

I believe X13 Gen 2 has soldered WiFi, not M.2.
