Wifi Adapter not found after Kernel Update

[IvanXVIII]

Hi everyone, after the recent Kernel update to 6.17.0-23 it is possible that there is no handshake to the wifi peripheral, and i have no way to switch without a usb.

I am new to zorin and i see other people have the same problem as me, so fai i tried:

-Confirming secure boot is disabled
-looking for older kernel version in grub>advanced options

But in the latter case the versions only go back to 6.17.0-22, when i should go back to -20.

Do i have to take my pc to a LAN in order to download the older one? Get it to a stick? Is it hidden in another repo?

Thank you in advance. It has been a mild work inconvenience and i would really appreciate your help.

Hello and welcome,
you can install 6.17.0-20 like this

sudo apt install linux-image-6.17.0-20-generic

The dependencies will be installed automatically. Then in the next boot, select it in the grub menu.

This is the Kernel before -23. Does this not work, too? Could You post the Output of the Commands sudo lshw -C network and rfkill list please?

If you have enabled a VPN please disable it if the terminal still shows errors. Then try it again.
