Client side don't you just add Realtek and Intel? I don't think almost anyone else does wifi chips.

- smashed 2mo agoYup. I might have forgotten Marvell in the list but yes, that is pretty much it. I am also not sure of their exact market shares but I would suspect one or two are probably steering the majority of the "standards". I'd suspect Broadcom and Qualcomm to have the most influence.
- cogman10 2mo agoI believe Intel is also a pretty prominent member in the standards committee. Mostly for historic reasons as I don't think they have too much market share outside of PC/laptop wifi modules. But I agree, Broadcom and Qualcomm are the heavy hitters.
- gpt5 2mo agoApple makes their own connectivity chips. It was a big blow for Qualcomm.
