My laptop is Lenovo Legion Y530 (i7 8th - 16GB ram - GTX1050). I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 for it and I was had a trouble with Wi-Fi. When I turn on Ubuntu, Wi-Fi doesn't found any modem.

I tried:

lspci -knn | grep Net -A3; rfkill list

This outputs:

    Hard blocked: no

The output of sudo lshw -C network is:

  • Restart your network manager by " sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager " -- turn wifi on/off by " nmcli radio wifi off " and " nmcli radio wifi on "

Try this, I have a Lenovo 530s with rtl8822be and it works for me. You should be root user.

After install remember to run the command sudo apt-get update.

Sometimes you should install twice.

After the first install, if it doesn't work, run the command ./make clean and install again.
