However, we have had some laptops with exactly the same specs and hardware and OS versions that connects fine
It is mostly apparent on Windows 10 Update 1803 but also been experiencing it on windows 8.1. Seems to be Realtek Wireless adapters of various versions and driver versions.
Here is the really strange thing, we probably have around 4000 users that use their laptops/phones etc on WiFi but around 1-2% cannot connect their laptops to the WiFi due to this issue, when you try to connect and during the connection process it disables the network adapter and brings it back online and then states it cannot connect to this network.
Mainly HP laptops with Realtek wireless network adapters, try to connect to the company network (we have 2 one for setup of a software that helps connect to the main network and means that the user should have no issues connecting after a password change as it should auto update the password. I’m trying many times using this method when i switching to new OS distros or update Linux Kernel.This is one of the most bizarre issues I have come across and to date, I have found no workaround or fix. After this just type in your linux terminal “sudo reboot” to rebooting your PC or Laptop.Then installing the latest “realtek-rtl88xxau-dkms” deb package from Kali’s repository.
You can find GDebi in Ubuntu Software Center, just search for it and install it from there. Installing GDebi (I’m using Geary on Pop! OS that are the same software).After this all you need is USB cable connected to your PC or Laptop and it’s done, now you ready online!.Inside “Developer Options” find it or scrolling to the “Network” and selected “Select USB Configuration” and then select again to the “USB Ethernet (RNDIS)”.Open your phone “Settings” and find it “About Phone” and selected “Version Number” and then now repeated click up to (7x) seven times.Then you need to opened “Developer Options” on your smartphone to do that first before.You only need YOUR SMARTPHONES and make sure also they have “Internet Mobile Data”.When you're switch to new OS distro or updating OS or accidently delete some part of software sometimes your Wifi driver are no support / no working and got blank your mind. This just short Tutorial for NEWBIE (like me!) for installing driver USB Wifi driver for Linux Debian and it’s derivatives (Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Pop! OS, Elementary OS, etc.) Output of iwconfig command: lo no wireless extensions.

I don't want to switch back to Windows and I don't want to buy another USB adapter. I'm currently using my phone as USB Ethernet but it's really unpractical. I also tried reinstalling Ubuntu and yet nothing. I tried pretty much everything that was answered here and in ubuntuforums since 20.04 was launched and nothing worked for me.
The problem is that I just couldn't get the RTL8811au drivers to work.
Yesterday I installed Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS for the first time because I wanted to try something new. It worked great on Windows 10 and I've never had any problems with it. A long time ago I bought a USB adapter which according to Windows used the RTL8811au chipset.
