   I recently took possession of a custom built machine.  It has a   
   MSI-X399-SLI-Plus motherboard and an AMD 2950x processor.   
      
   I've loaded Leap 15.0 onto it.  But while it sees the PCI WiFi it won't use it.   
   I see the message:   
   rtl8821ae:  Polling FW ready fail!!  Pop up about every second in a terminal   
   windown (Ctrl F1).   
   I can use YaST and edit the device.  Putting in all the correct information.    
   It   
   will scan and show me the ESSID.  But the device is always "Not connected".   
      
   What are my options?  Is there a place I can go and download a device driver   
   for   
   it?  Should I go get an external WiFi adapter?  If so, what kind?
