Intel Corporation Wi-Fi 6 AX201: can´t connect to secure WiFi [8086:a0f0]

Hello,

Thanks for the feedback.

If this gives you any clue about why it did not work before, I will be happy to hear about that. Otherwise, it has been a pleasure, folks!

As far as I can currently see, the main difference from your previous posts is that you are now running a newer kernel version compared to the latest reported with Debian.

You were running Linux kernel 6.6.13 with Debian (from Debian Backports):

Code: Select all

gonzalo@debian5:~$ uname -mr
6.6.13+bpo-amd64 x86_64

You are currently running Linux kernel 6.8.0-38 (with Ubuntu/Mint):

Code: Select all

gonzalo@gonzalo-pc:~$ inxi -SNa
System:
  Host: gonzalo-pc Kernel: 6.8.0-38-generic arch: x86_64 bits: 64

Ok, I get it. Yup, it would make sense that the reason my wifi did not work had to do with that.

As I said, thank you very much! I suppose I will be back here somewhere in the future
