Cannot find any WiFi networks on my HP Pavillion x360 using Ubuntu 22.10

cx flag

On a clean installation of Ubuntu 22.10 on my laptop with a intel WiFi 6 AX201 Wifi adapter, when I click on the Wifi icon, no Wifi networks show up. I've tried looking at other answers but they haven't helped me - I tried almost everything i could that is online. Please help (Ubuntu newbie).

When I turn lshw -C network I get:

WARNING: you should run this program as super-user.

After a fresh boot, open a terminal and type `lspci -vvnn | grep -A 9 Network` then post the result please.

Hmm, search askubuntu for iwlwifi driver problems and you might get some ideas. It seems to clash with secureboot on some devices. Try looking for errors `dmesg | grep iwlwifi` or try updating your firmware `sudo apt-get install -y linux-firmware` and let us know.

Found a "solution": - Went ahead and purchased a WiFi USB from Amazon for $15, saved me the headache. Thanks everyone for trying to help, I appreciate this community!

I was having the same issue with AX 201, switching the kernel to 6.1-oem fixed it for me.

with default kernel (linux-image-5.19.0-32-generic) sudo dmesg | grep iwl showed AX 201 being detected as AC 9560.

I sit in a Tesla and translated this thread with Ai:

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.
