I've been trying to fix my problem through other solutions in other questions, but it's not been working. I'm kind of a linux noob, but i am aware that my system is recognizing the connection, but for some reason is not able to connect. Whenever my system boots up, it tries to connect, but then fails, and continues to keep trying. I did not have this problem on windows previously. I'm worried it could be a driver issue, but not sure.
Some outputs:
