Bright entertainment trends with youth appeal.

I have a new motherboard from MSI (Z690 Tomhawk wifi ddr4). The onboard wifi does not work in ubuntu 20.04 I have only ubuntu (no dual boot with windows). Fast boot and secure boot is disabled in BIOS settings. I tried installing drivers from Intel website It did not work.

following is the output of sudo lshw -C network :

I solved this problem by implementing the Ubuntu22.04. I guess that Ubuntu20.04 doesn't has the latest support for mag-z690-tomohawk-wifi motherboard. Hope it helps.
