Intel Wireless-AC (WiFi) 9462 not working with RHEL 8.2 - Wireless Adapter Not Found
I installed RHEL 8.2 Desktop variant with default installer settings on my desktop having configurations - Intel i7, Gigabyte MB Aorus Z490 Elite AC that has Intel® Wireless-AC 9462 and Bluetooth adaptors built-in.
Going into "Settings->Wi-Fi" shows the message "No Wi-Fi Adapter Found...make sure you have a Wi-Fi adapter plugged and turned on". Wherein Bluetooth is working fine. RHEL is installed along side to Windows 10 2004 release where WiFi is working pretty fine, so no hardware issue per se.
I had install driver of wifi 9462 adapter recommended by Intel but no luck. Apparently, the recommended firmware
iwlwifi-9000-pu-b0-jf-b0-34.ucodeiwlwifi-QuZ-a0-jf-b0-50.ucodeI am attaching output of some of diagnostics commands for reference of community experts.
