Bug Description

Ubuntu version 20.04.1 LTS (was previously running 18.04.4 LTS and upgraded to try to resolve this issue)
Intel Corporation Wireless-AC 9260

Problems with WiFi connection slowly grinding to a halt. From /var/syslog (see attachment for further info from the log):
Microcode SW error detected. Restarting 0x2000000.

This occurred first a couple of days ago presumably following an update. The logs /var/log/syslog and /var/log/kern.log filled up with the disk repeated attempts to restart the WiFi.
I upgraded to the latest release of Ubuntu hoping to fix the problem. Also worth mentioning that I don't think its a hardware problem as wiFi works when I boot up from a USB pen drive.
