I'm no longer able to use Wifi on my lenovo thinkpad p1 after a recent update from Ubuntu (i think at least). And I'm desperately looking for some guidance if it's the chip or if it's a driver issue.



This is probably a duplicate of another question but all the other ones I've seen talk about either Realtek or a Qualcomm based wifi chip. Mine is the 9560 from Intel. And I'm seeing the following output within the script provided by: https://askubuntu.com/a/425205/972343



https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/7C2NvXxXKH/



And this is what i see when running dmesg | grep iwl

And some additional information provided by lspci -v | grep Network

I figured it out -- apparently I had activated an invisible airplane mode through one of the function keys.



Thanks to @MrOrgon who I found by accident while googling. His comment made me think: Could it really be that easy...
