the link here was helpful. specially the command.

sudo dpkg -s linux-modules-extra-$(uname -r) | grep Status

after running the command the module was missing So after downloading and installing the required module manually the machine got connection of wifi but not cable.

Once the machine got connection I immediately run the upgrade command to upgrade from 20 to 22 and after the upgrade everting start working.

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.
