Hi, I just tried this driver yesterday and get the same issue. But it got fixed once I updated the firmware: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89#a-note-regarding-firmware

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/rtw89

Hope it helps.

I ended up moving to an older version and it instantly worked. Just going to stick to that one for the forseeable future
