You've been formally invited to laugh at me troubleshooting my first issue in Linux.

The weird thing is that it seems to be working? Either I misdiagnosed the problem, or maybe my old one was just broken.

Just curious but what distro are you using?

I might be able to help in my spare time

Pop OS. It seems to be working for now, but I think my next step if it happens again will be to just use ethernet and call it a day.

If Ethernet is an option, then it's the best option.

Well, the PC is far from the router, but someone mentioned setting up a WiFi extender that has an ethernet port, and that doesn't sound like too bad of an idea.

Hey I'm glad it's working for you! Nice!👍

Totally fair.

Pop OS is based on Ubuntu LTS and uses a relatively old base system as a result. Try a live ISO like https://get.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/ and check if drivers have since improved.
