I am new to Linux and Ubuntu and I just managed to install Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS onto my Lenovo X1 Carbon Gen 7 in Dual Boot. From Windows Device Manager, I can see that my WiFi card is Intel(R) Wireless AC 9650 160MHz
. The problem is that currently, I am not able to connect to WiFi as the WiFi Panel in settings says "No WiFi Adaptor Found". These are the things I have done so far:
- Disabled Secure Boot
- Installed the driver for the above wifi card from https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005511/network-and-i-o/wireless-networking.html and put it into
/lib/firmware
.
I am also unable to connect to the internet in Ubuntu using Ethernet. I hope someone can provide with me a solution to connect to the internet using my wifi (and optionally with ethernet, but focus on wifi). I am very new to linux, so I do not know what more information you require. If you require any more information from me to assist me better please let me know. TThank you very much for your help.

I ran the steps suggested by @chili555 but it still didn't work. Here is the output of dmesg | grep iwl

I know almost nothing about this stuff, but it seems like it is still using firmware version 43 rather than 46.
EDIT 2:
I have added the output of running sudo dpkg -i linux*.deb
:

Edit 3:
Thank you at @chili555 and @Pilot6 for all your help. Finally, I have decided to use Ubuntu 19.10 and the WiFi works flawlessly in this. This result leads me to believe that the error was in fact being caused by the Linux-Firmware being 43. 19.10 uses Linux Firmware 48 and everything works fine. I believe updating the Linux Firmware using this link provided by @Pilot6 should in fact make the problem go away on 18.04 but since everything is working fine in 19.10 and the next LTS release is just around the corner, I will stick with 19.10 for now and therefore cannot check whether @Pilot6 solution works for sure. Thanks for all your help. The Ubuntu Community is truly awesome.
lspci -knn | grep Net -A3; rfkill list
terminal command. And alsodmesg | grep iwl
ls /lib/firmware | grep iwl; uname -a
.sudo modprobe -r iwlmvm && sudo modprobe -r iwlwifi && sudo modprobe iwlwifi
. Wi-Fi should work.
