That’s the output it gave me. Copied and pasted the given command twice just to be sure wasn’t a mistake.
Above is not the command I posted.
lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 -E "network|Wi-Fi"
was the command I posted as can be seen by reading the post above.
spaceboy@fedora ~> lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 -E “network|Wi-Fi”
spaceboy@fedora ~ [0|1]>
ok, tried it from bash shell as been using fish shell. That command returns nothing using bash.
That command should work well in bash.
With fish I cannot be certain the options all perform the same so use the man pages or known differences between bash and fish to define why the differing output.
lspci -nnk is equivalent in bash to lspci -n -n -k
In bash egrep is the same as grep -E but can also be used as grep -e <term1> -e <term2>. The -i makes it case insensitive and the A3 tells it to return the matching line plus the 3 following lines. Some versions of grep are different with the options and how they work.
something like?:
lspci -n -n -k | grep -iA3 -E “network|Wi-Fi”
or
lspci -n -n -k | grep -E -iA3 “network|Wi-Fi”
Options that have arguments must be immediately followed by the argument. -A3 is one example. -E “network|Wi-Fi” is another. Some are general such as -i
When a string of commands fails, you can break it down:
lspci -nnk > lpsci.out
lspc.out is a text file. Look at the contents to verify that it contains a list PCI devices, including one mentioning either network or WiFi. Then try:
grep -iA3 -E "network|Wi-Fi" lspci.out
My colleagues have found Linux Command helpful. It is based on the bash shell, but sticks close to the POSIX standard.

That does show an ethernet controller but does not show a wifi controller (unless it was clipped in copying)
With what was posted earlier I would expect it to show up there.
Maybe this is either a dirty connection with that card or a failure of the card itself. (which also could explain the strange responses on the lspci -nnk command.)
In any case, intermittent connections to a network adapter can cause problems and should be now addressed at the hardware level.
lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 -E “network|Wi-Fi”
I get an error about “Wi-Fi: command not found”
changing that to single ticks works:
lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 -E 'network|Wi-Fi'

This topic is about problems with a USB WiFi adapter:
This is a different WiFi chip and driver. Please start a new topic with details of your issue and the full inxi -Fzxx report.
That’s a USB device, not PCI:
Drivers for USB devices can be identified with:
lsusb -v -v -t
This is relevant if the OP decides to try an alternative driver.
