Correction: I have the same display issue, but WiFi IS working on Dell
Precision 5520, Unbuntu 20.04.

My apologies, there was an unrelated DHCP issue, but this display
problem got me going down the wrong path to fix it.

Title:
  software-properties-gtk erroneously reports that certain Intel
  wireless adapter cards are not working

Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Groovy:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 20.04 (development branch), as of today, Additional Drivers
  (software-properties-gtk 0.98.6) reports that the device "Intel
  Corporation: Wireless-AC 9260" is not working, and suggests using a
  manually installed driver (cf. screenshot).

  However the device is working correctly:

    * lsmod | grep iwlwifi, lspci -v, lshw, dmesg | grep iwlwifi all show
      that its driver iwlwifi is in use
    * ls /lib/firmware/*9260* show that the appropriate firmware files
      are present

  And I am indeed writing this bug report connected to an ac (5 GHz)
  wifi network, where I can verify a ~130-160 Mbps download speed, so
  software-properties-gtk shouldn't report the device as not working and
  suggest manually installing a driver. Not sure why it says so?

  EDIT: bug confirmed as affecting the following Intel wireless adapter
  cards, and assumedly more to come:

    Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX200
    Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3165
    Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260
    Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260
    Intel Wireless-AC 9260

  Also for reference here are the specs of Intel adapter cards:
