Sorry I don't understand.   

Are you saying it will be in the HW repo but it will NEVER appear in TW during
a new install ?

When I installed I had to do an offline install since I didn't have a network
connection because there was no 8125/8126 driver.

After the install was done I had to setup wifi so that I could install gcc and
kernel-devel so that I could compile the drivers.

I must be misunderstanding you because I would be shocked if the latest driver
for the new 5G wired network card would not eventually be included.

Please help me understand better.
