Lenovo Flex 5 14ARE05 Ethernet Upgrade (potentially need to mod BIOS?)
I would say good luck, even the thinkpads of that year do not have any patches released.

But I am pretty sure at least the thinkpads no longer whitelist the wlan slot as of 2018 ish.
so its likely your flex whatever also might not have a whitelist.
Have you actually tried installing the thing?
be careful with ch341a, the amd laptops from lenovo are all 1.8v bios chips. I was able to flash one with a raspberry pi with 3.3v power/3.3v logic, but I would probably not do it with a ch341a as they are 5v logic
also keep in mind there will never be a modified bios you simply download and flash. the laptops, the bios is all uniquely keyed to each machine. in all cases you would have to dump your bios and patch out the whitelist, or send it to someone to do it. anything else is probably some malware
