Since Lenovo last year, 2020 summer, announced that they officially support Ubuntu with many of their models I dared to buy Lenovo Thinkpad L15 Gen2 AMD with the hope that I will avoid exactly this situation... However unluckily the wifi adapter is not working... :( Do you have tipps for me? Thank you!

https://ubuntu.com/certified/202103-28879
What I have already tried:
live-isos from following distros:
- Kubuntu kubuntu-21.04-desktop-amd64
- Manjaro manjaro-kde-21.0.7-210614-linux510.iso
- Pop OS pop-os_21.04_amd64_intel_6.iso
-> non of them support the wifi HW
After installing Kubuntu 21.04 i can print the following infos:
