After this post I had to change my motherboard because sound wasn't working. Now with the new one I can't get the WiFi and Bluetooth to work so I'm asking for help again.

  • Distro : Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS (No dual boot)
  • Kernel : 5.19.0-43-generic
  • Motherboard : Gigabyte B550M DS3H PULSE
  • CPU : AMD Ryzen 5 5600
  • GPU : AMD Sapphire Radeon RX 6600
  • WiFi and Bluetooth : ASUS AX3000 (Intel AX200NGW chip)

The WiFi card is set in a PCIe x16 slot because the GPU blocks the only PCIe x1 slot. I could return the motherboard and order one with WiFi built in but I'd prefer to make if work with what I have.

Here's some info :

Networks appear when nmcli device wifi list and same goes for bluetooth devices, which are visible in the parameters.

  • Everything looks perfect so far. What about the wifi is not working? When you click the Network Manager icon at the top right, do you see networks? Do networks appear here? nmcli device wifi list – chili555 May 31 '23 at 20:55
  • Hi! Thanks for coming back. Yes networks appear. Bluetooth devices as well. The problem is can't connect to them. In the parameters the little wheel keeps spinning and nothing happens when I try to connect to them. – toibi Jun 01 '23 at 06:23
  • Can you connect after sudo iwconfig wlp4s0 power off && sudo iwconfig wlp4s0 txpower 15 – Jeremy31 Jun 01 '23 at 11:28
  • No, I can't connect – toibi Jun 01 '23 at 12:42
  • Okay I found the solution. Wifi card is Pcie 2.0. Setting it accordingly in BIOS solved the issue. Thank to you both for your insights! – toibi Jun 01 '23 at 13:34

The Pci-e port is 3.0 and the wifi card is 2.0. Setting it accordingly in BIOS solved the issue.
