I bought a new computer Lenovo IdeaPad S145 and made a fresh installation on Ubuntu 20.04 there. The problem is that wifi card was not detected.
I tried to install different drivers but with no success. Mainly because I can't reveal what is exact version my wifi card. The output of lspci -nnk | grep Net -A3
is just:
01:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device [10ec:c82f]
Subsystem: Lenovo Device [17aa:c02f]
06:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller [0108]: KIOXIA Corporation Device [1e0f:0001]
Subsystem: KIOXIA Corporation Device [1e0f:0001]
So, I see that the card is Realtek but the exact version seems to be missing.
What I've tried so far:
- Did a system update to ensure that the kernel is of latest version
- Checked if there are soft or hard locks with
rfkill
- there are not - Tried to install 3rd party drivers, I installed rtl8821ce and rtl8192cu
- Tried to disable airplane mode
- Checked if there are additional drivers in Software & Updates - there are not
As advised here, I attach the wireless script output in a pastebin with more info. Please note that currently I'm connected with usb netstick, which might affect the results of the script.
Thanks in advance.
Update:
The problem was solved after installing this driver: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw88
lspci -v
is not particularly interesting. Post the output oflspci -nnk | grep Net -A3
