Why would you guess Chinese? Broadcom, Qualcomm, MediaTek, and Realtek are the typical answers for radio chips, no? None of whom are Chinese? There certainly are Chinese radio chips, such as from Espressif or Huawei, but they aren't especially popular in APs or anything

Most of those chips are made in TSMC or samsung foundries, the majority of which are currently in China or South Asia.
Realtek windows drivers literally have taiwnese written text. They are as American as Lego
I really dont see what your comment means in response to the current thread?
So not China unless you’re being pedantic and pretending when people say they are avoiding China they doin don’t mean the mainland governed by the communist party.
The majority of their foundries are in Taiwan and South Korea which, to avoid politics, is outside what most people mean when they worry about tech made in China (they think about the PRC).
None of them are in china. They are in Taiwan and South Korea.
