Welcome to the forums, How old is your machine? I am wondering if you may need legacy drivers.
Can you install inxi to your Alpine, and run from the terminal inxi -Nnz copy and paste back the results

This dosen't tell us which drivers [if any] are installed, whereas inxi Nn will
[inxi should be in your software manager]

Install "NetworkManager if you don't have it installed and enable it.
NetworkManager provides the full integration via the shell network settings and a status indicator applet network-manager-applet (not required for GNOME).
