I have a problem with my WiFi in Ubuntu. It worked well in Windows 10 but I wiped the drive to do a clean Ubuntu installation and there is no visible adapter.

I'm with 20.04, haven't tried others, laptop model is Teclast F6 Plus.

uname -a

Linux zor 5.8.0-50-generic #56~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 12 21:46:35 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

When I execute lspci in terminal there are no information about the network controller.

After that I execute:

echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/rescan

If I execute lspci after that, then it shows information about the network controller

02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 3165 (rev 79)

Still WiFi doesn't work but it seems the controller is there. If I restart and execute lspci there's no information about the network controller again.

After doing echo 1 | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/rescan

Wireless card is soldered to the board, it is not an external PCI adapter.

I'm very lost, I don't know what to do to solve that.

Disabling D3 didn't help: Intel 3165 not working on Ubuntu 19.10

I think this solution will help you: Intel Wireless 3165 doesn't work If not: I had a similar problem with my Teclast f7 plus laptop. I had to change two things in the BIOS (assuming the default):

  1. Advanced --> RC ACPI Settings --> Native PCIE ENABLE --> Disabled
  2. Chipset --> South Cluster Configuration --> PCI Express Configuration --> PCI Express Root Port 2 --> Hot Plug --> Enable
