Bug Description
I was evaluating the newly released Xubuntu 20.04.2 LTS by creating a LiveUSB from the ISO.
All I did was to connect to wifi and browse internet using Firefox. After two days of occasional usage, I found that wifi adapter has disappeared from NetworkManager (and output of iwconfig as well).
Attached the relevant portions of dmesg output.
Output of 'lsb_release -rd':
