I have an ASUS laptop dual-booted with Ubuntu 22.04. I booted it up today and the wifi ssid shows up but it never connects.dmesg shows the authentication times out. Tried connecting to the same wifi with another device and there is no problem at that end.
I tried solutions suggested throughout the web and reached nowhere. Here is the current state of the network side of my system. Let me know if there is something that I missed.
