Ok...so I’m confused. How will plugging in a usb wifi device to your PC’s USB port allow your Linux distro access your wifi network any easier? What method do you use now? Are you using a desktop PC or a laptop. Please elucidate.

Doesn’t it make sense that a natively-supported WiFi chip in the external device is going to streamline things?
I have used the wrapper method in the past, however, and it was no big deal.

because you’re installing a different brand of wifi hardware that does have a driver that support Linux
