I would really appreciate some help. I have a MacBook Pro 2015 and I'm dual booting Deepin and MacOS. The problem is that Deepin can't detect any wifi so I'm unable to connect to the internet. I can't even use the cable because there is no port for it on the MacBook. This problem is not just with Deepin however, I have tried several other Linux distros and all but a couple have the same issue. In fact, I think only Maui OS & Solus OS have been able to detect wifi.
I've looked online for solutions yet no luck thus far. If anyone has any suggestions on how I can get online on my Deepin partition I'd be very grateful.
Cheers

you can buy a usb to LAN adapter. it's very cheap and deepin could automatically detect it and made it possible connecting to the internet via the usb port.

Did you tried run the commands lspci , dmidecode , to know your wi-fi hardware .
Others command will help know about your hardware:
Please grab the output of this command here. Of if you have the model and year of your laptop, maybe we can find more about the hardware and how enable in Deepin.

Hello. You and try searching the Ubuntu or Debian forums for a solution since Ubuntu is based on Debian and Deepin is too. Also, if you could get hold of a wifi adapter/usb wifi dongle, which in Linux are usually plug & play, that might be a solution.And perhaps another Deepin forum member will come along with how they solved the same problem. Good luck.
