Wi-Fi drivers are notoriously complicated on Linux in general, though things have been improving.

Those aren’t really the same apps between the two systems, even if most of them still have the same names. Not only do the modem versions have more features, but they also have updated designs, window chrome, and use more secure underpinnings.
