Looking this up.... you are not alone. A lot of threads out there complaining of poor wifi performance on this chip on Ubuntu 20.04...
I have not yet found a solution.

I know what you mean Aravisian. There are only two things I can think of with WIFI issues.
First is the driver installed? If yes, then has power management been disabled? If also yes, and still having issues, then I have absolutely no clue.
So, that leaves me with the only possible solution I can come up with for a conclusion, and that is to just buy a WIFI USB dongle that is made for Linux.
