Lenovo Ideapad Gaming-3 15ACG6 with AMD Ryzen™ 4000H APU
I tried this driver https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89, with make install, but it still don't see any option to enable wireless.
I love the new OS and looking forward to having wifi enabled.
Please advise.
Also, please check Zorin App Menu > Settings > Wifi
Don't forget to enable it after the installation. In Terminal:
cd rtw89
sudo modprobe rtw89pci
Also, please do let me know if you achieve a stable WiFi connection, as I have the same adapter and lose internet access every few minutes.

I worry I'm leaving out some information you need. Please question me and let me know what assumptions you have so I can confirm each.

I did 'Search' in "Settings" and found "Wifi". WIthin the dialog there is toggle for 'Airplane' mode and beneath that a big 'question mark' with "No Wi-Fi Adapter Found, make sure you have a Wi-Fi adapter plugged and turned on"
The wireless network device is not being detected. Interface enp2so is the ethernet hardwire device and interface lo is used for downloading/reading files that are already hosted on your device for example, an apache web server.
You'll need to install a proper driver as a kernel module.
You may start with installing dkms (dynamic kernel module support), and be sure the kernel-headers are installed as well
Thanks Jacques.
Please detail command line which does the steps you recommend.
Sry, I'm still Linux n00b
Open terminal with keyboard shortcut ctrl+alt+t and then paste in each of the following, one at a time.
git clone GitHub - lwfinger/rtw89: Driver for Realtek 8852AE, an 802.11ax device -b v5
cd rtw89
make
sudo make sign-install
Make is the name of a Program, actually. You are calling on Make to configure and install the workings of the software.

Here are the results. It appears there's a 'rule' missing?

Is iwconfig how we can know if wifi is working?
stan@stan-Gaming3-15ACH6:~/rtw89$ iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
enp2s0 no wireless extensions.
I am sorry for the delay - there were things that needed my immediate attention here.
Try sudo make install, instead.
cd rtw89
make
sudo make install

Any delay in your reply is no problem. Thanks for helping.
Okay, here is what happened:

Ok, can you reboot the computer then test your wireless?
sry for delay, as soon as my Steam download is done, I can reboot and reply... it's at 85% now
after reboot, I'm not sure how to know if it's working now.
Here are some things I tried:
stan@stan-Gaming3-15ACH6:~$ iwconfig

When I open WiFi from Settings menu it says "No Wi-Fi Adapter Found"
Is there need to enable it?
I tried this:
stan@stan-Gaming3-15ACH6:~$ iwconfig enp2s0 enable
iwconfig: unknown command "enable"
stan@stan-Gaming3-15ACH6:~$ ifconfig enp2s0 enable
enable: Host name lookup failure
ifconfig: `--help' gives usage information.
No, it should do so on reboot...
can you post the terminal output of
inxi -nx
