Hello,
Yesterday, installed POP_OS Linux distro on a laptop running windows and replaced windows.
After installation, I find WiFi tab missing under Settings.
I am a new Linux user, I don't know if the issue is related to hardware or drivers.
While running Windows I could get WiFi working using USB dongle but that is not working in POP.
Please help!
