Hello friends,
I just installed Manjaro Linux on my Macbook Pro from 2012 and the WLAN is really very very slow… right now I am using the LAN Cable … in the internet I noticed I am not the only one with a macbook that has this problem and some people said I need to replace my wlan driver. I am really brandnew to the manjaro world. Can you guys, help me through this? Thanks in advance. 
Horst
