Hii to all linux users, hope you can help me.

I updated my system a couple of days ago, pop os 24.04 LTS and wifi stoped working. The problem is i dont have wire so wifi is only connection to the internet curently. And i managed to lose it… So i tryed to fix the problem by switching to older kernel but it didnt fix the problem unfortinetly.

I gave up and reinstalled whole system thinking it will fix it. And since i do it i decided to try new cosmic alpha system. So i downloaded that and i like it despite its not finished and it has bugs and missing features. But that didnt fix my wifi problem! Its still not working.

I have two ssd-s, so on my main one 1TB i have linux and thats what im using, but on second one 500GB i have windows 10 for some games that doesnt work on linux. So i was using that to download latest pop os and my wifi card works so its obviusly not dead or anything.

I plan to get wire but i have some drilling to do for that and i would like to fix wifi card before that if possinble.

Almost forgot, my wifi card is Asus pcie card, with two antenas, its red and wery beautifull. Tryed to uploud picture of it but my acount is new so that wasnt possible. I dont know exact model number but this one looks exactly like mine so meabu its that one.

    Three things,

    • Have you tried using a newer kernel?
    • You should be able to use a USB tethering to use your phone for internet.
    • I really despise USB & PCIE WiFi adapters as they cause so many issues. If your computer has an ethernet port then you are better off getting an WiFi access point that has Wi-Fi bridge mode, you can connect your computer to it using an ethernet cable then connect the access point to the WiFi. Your computer only sees the ethernet connection so no additional drivers, settings or futzing around needed.
