Install Intel Wireless Drivers on GP66 Leopard laptop running Ubuntu 20.04

pl flag

My device can't found any wifi drivers as I turned to Ubuntu 20.04 on my GP66 Leopard with the following devices:

anto@anto-GP66-Leopard-11UH:~$ lspci -knn | grep Net -A3; rfkill list
05:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wi-Fi 6 AX210/AX211/AX411 160MHz [8086:2725] (rev 1a)
    Subsystem: Rivet Networks Device [1a56:1674]
    Kernel modules: wl
0: hci0: Bluetooth
    Soft blocked: no
    Hard blocked: no

I tried to do the following:

first attempt

  1. Add restricted component repository

     sudo add-apt-repository restricted
    
  2. Update packages list

     sudo apt-get update
    
  3. Confirm that you have kernel headers installed and updated

     sudo apt-get install linux-generic
    
  4. Then install it again

     sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source
    

Second attempt

  1. Go to the Intel Linux Driver Downloads.
  2. Download the appropriate driver for my card. The one that comes with the Framework laptop is the Wi-Fi 6 AX210. Don’t mind that it is lacking the E.
  3. Download and extract the files in the tarball to my downloads folder or other location.
  4. Open my terminal and cd into the directory containing the files you just extracted.
  5. Run this command. Replaced XX with the version number of my driver (or just use tab autofill): sudo cp iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0-XX.gcode /lib/firmware
  6. Reboot my laptop.

None of them worked.

I don't know if it's related but this brand new machine freeze from time to time. I suspect it is rather because of the Intel Graphics driver...

delete file

I deleted /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0.pnvm file but it still don't recognize my drivers

kernel version

Does this answer your question? [Ubuntu 20.04 - No WiFi adapter found](https://askubuntu.com/questions/1369671/ubuntu-20-04-no-wifi-adapter-found)

Thanks @ChanganAuto unfortunately it didn't work

@RevolucionforMonica All your actions were wrong. 1) Installing `linux-generic` 2) Installing Broadcom drivers 3)Deleting firmware.

@Pilot6 thanks for pointing that out I have no idea of how to handle this WiFi issue. Should I reinstall Ubuntu 20.04?

Install 20.04.3 and if you still have a problem ask a question with output of `dmesg | grep iwl`. And is it a dual boot?

Which kernel are you using? Please post the output of `uname -a`.

@RevolucionforMonica Check if the first part of my answer works.

Please edit to include results from terminal for `dmesg | grep iwl` There might be an issue with the firmware version being higher than what the kernel will load

According to Linux Hardware this network card is supported by kernel driver 5.12 or above.

You can install kernel 5.13 on Ubuntu 20.04 with

sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-20.04-edge

and reboot.


Alternatively, You can use the mainline tool to update the kernel to 5.12 or a later version. There is a PPA.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cappelikan/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mainline

mainline

Image source: Project README

Here you can install a kernel like 5.13 or 5.14 and reboot (please note that the mainline kernels are not as stable as the default kernels, and may have other issues).

Why go through that effort when you can install the 5.13 on Ubuntu 20.04 with `sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-20.04-edge`

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
