Intel Wifi 6 AX210 - WiFi not working after Update

Dear askubuntu community,

after the latest updates (Terminal: sudo apt update & upgrade) my WiFi suddenly didn't work anymore. I did a fresh installation including with all applications necessary for me, and again not working after the updates.

Yesterday i reproduced it after a fresh installation (20.04 LTS - latest version) WiFi is working until i do updates.

System: P14s AMD Gen2

WiFi: Intel Wifi 6 AX210 non vPro --> support at Kernel 5.10+

OS: dual boot with win 10 + 20.04.2 LTS Ubuntu Mate, Kernel 5.11.0.27

Bluetooth still works, WiFi stops working - not even in the network list - after sudo update&upgrade.

Any recommendations?

i just switched the WiFi card to Intel because the original one (RTL8852AE 11ax) didn't work ..

This is the subject of a well-known bug report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=212371#c13

Let's try the suggested fix. From the terminal:

sudo mv /usr/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0.pnvm  /usr/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0.bak

Reboot and tell us if there is any improvement.

EDIT: It appears that periodic updates to the package linux-firmware will install a new version of the offending file iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0.pnvm and so this process will need to be repeated.
