 On this list, please do not top post.

 Thanks for the upload. Those 80 BIOS Errors do not lend much confidence in the  quality of your BIOS! Have you checked for updates?

 Have you tried when setting the options disable_msi=y and disable_aspm=y for  module rtw88_pci if you use the kernel driver, or module rtw_pci if you use my  GitHub repo. That fixes a lot of strange errors.

Hello Larry,

I tried to update the BIOS (without success so far as Lenovo doesn't provide anything else than a windows 32 bit exe file). But this led me to boot a windows 10 on my laptop. Surprisingly this somehow "unlocked" the Wifi. Seems the issue is somehow related to the chip deep sleep mode (I remember reading something about this a while back), from which the driver is unable to wake it up but the windows driver manages to do so.
Not sure if this might help in diagnosing the problem but just reporting back.

If you boot Windows and Linux, it is absolutely imperative that you disable "quick boot" in Windows. That mode sometimes leaves devices disables for other OS's. I think this is what happened here.

Larry
