Ubuntu 20.04


I've tried several answers from other similar questions.


After changing from Nouveau to NVIDIA driver, I now don't have any WiFI settings (no icon in the taskbar, nothing but VPN settings in network settings, no connection).


Switching back to Nouveau doesn't fix it.


My WiFI card is Intel 6 AX200


Out put of lshw -C Network (the WiFI part):


*-network UNCLAIMED
description: Network controller
product: Wi-Fi 6 AX200
vendor: Intel Corporation
physical id: 0
bus info: pci@0000:03:00.0
version: 1a
width: 64 bits
clock: 33MHz
capabilities: pm msi pciexpress msix cap_list
configuration: latency=0
resources: memory:fc700000-fc703fff

Output of sudo modprobe iwlwifi:


     modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod-module.c:838 kmod_module_insert_module() could not find module by name='iwlwifi'
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'iwlwifi': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

Seems the driver isn't being picked up(?) though I've manually downloaded it myself to try to fix this and moved it to /lib/firmware and rebooted.


Any ideas?

You need to install linux-modules-extra-5.4.0-52 by


sudo apt install linux-modules-extra-5.4.0-52-generic

It is weird that it didn't install automatically on a kernel upgrade. Probably you've interrupted an upgrade.
