I found many similar questions and followed this one. As per the accepted answer, in case the status of wireless interface listed as *-network UNCLAIMED, I should follow the steps to install new drivers. On heading over here, under additional drivers section, I don't see any driver recommendation instead it shows this . Now how should I proceed? None of the answer in the last link solves this.

Machine is dual boot, but on windows side, wifi is working.

UPDATE: Lucky or Unlucky, can't decide. Maybe lucky if it is solved forever. And Today it happened again. Here are the result of sudo modprobe iwlwifi && sudo dmesg | grep iwl

WORKING: (recorded yesterday when it was working)

iwlwifi: probe of 0000:01:00.0 failed with error -110

Error -110 often suggests that, in a dual-boot system, Windows has not completely shut down the wireless device in order to allow it to boot quite quickly. Since Windows still has at least partial control of the wireless device, it is not fully available to Ubuntu. Please see: https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi#about_dual-boot_with_windows_and_fast-boot_enabled

Please reboot into Windows and disable Fast Boot. Reboot into Ubuntu and I suspect that the Error -110 messages will be gone and that the wireless will now be working.
