I upgraded my Wireless Card from Intel Wireless 9560 to AX200. I have Dual Boot Windows OS & Ubuntu 20.10 on my HP Omen.

I updated my wireless driver on my Windows 10 environment. Everything working perfectly.Every time I boot into my Ubuntu 20.10, I have to connect to my hidden Wifi every time.

I tried to see if Ubuntu recognizing the AX200 drive. This is what I found:

    krillavilla@krillavilla-OMN:~$ sudo dmesg | grep iwlw
[sudo] password for krillavilla:

UPDATE I went to the Intel website to load the driver using the instruction provided on this link Intel Linux Wireless Driverl

I still get kicked off my Wifi randomly

UPDATE It's been 4 hours and I did not get kick off my wifi yet. I did some research and found this article Kernel Update which I already have an updated version of the kernel.

krillavilla@krillavilla-OMN:~$ uname -r
5.8.0-28-generic

Also, people had reported disabling Fast Boot and secure on Windows 10 OS Intel Fast Boot. I already disable Fast boot startup and my secure BIOS is disabled since I have Windows OS dual boot.

Now, my issue is my throughput on my Windows 10 OS speed test is over 120mbps download speed. On my Ubuntu 20.10, I get a 55mbps download speed. All the other devices connected to my TP-Link AX6000 getting over 200+mpbs download speed. my laptop is the only device that getting less than 200mbps.

Why is that?

UPDATE

I restart my computer and Ubuntu 20.10 didn't connect to my Wifi automatically. I have to go to Network Manager and connect it manually.

UPDATE

Its been several hours and I didn't get kicked off my wifi but I still have to connect to it manually after restart or reboot.

I have 4 questions I need help with:

  1. Can someone help me resolve this error message:

     [3.484752] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)
     [3.498326] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-cc-a0-56.ucode failed with error -2
    
  2. Can someone help me figure out why Ubuntu won't connect to my Wifi Automatically after reboot/restart?

  3. Can anyone explain to me why my Windows 10 OS has way faster Link speed/throughput than my Ubuntu 20.10? Is there a fix for this issue?

4.Is there a way to install WPA 3 and 802.11ax on my Ubuntu laptop?

So I had this issue today when somebody installed Ubuntu 20.10 instead of 20.04 after internet searches and trying lots of things I resolved the problem.

I downloaded the20.04 latest Linux firmware linux-firmware_1.187.4_all.deb

then I uninstalled the 20.10 version using

dpkg -r --force-depends linux-firmware

then installed the old package

dpkg -i linux-firmware_1.187.4_all.deb

Rebooted and everything worked fine...
