Wifi Isssue

Hello all,
I recently got a used HP Pavillon x2 detachable.
I nuked windows and installed Zorin OS 16.1 lite.
The system works like a charm, but with one serious issue
My Wifi is not working correctly
I see all the SSID but cant connect.
I did lshw -c Network

IS it something with the driver?

I stopped the Networkmanager and restartet it. The driver seems to be installed, otherwise i would not see the Hardware, right?

If someone could have a look and give me some tipps, that would be great
Thank you in advance

can you run the hardware probe for us and share the results?

@ExtremeShark , can you please help us out and post the output for

sudo lshw -c network

Here you go

That driver is included in the kernel - but may need to be patched. Please review this post here:
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=1911297#p1911297

Wow, that is kind of complicated. It would be great when someone could help me with that. I do not know where to find these files

Yes, it is.
In fact, I would actually try the Liquorix or Tuxinvader kernel before trying to run headlong down that rabbit hole...
