Here's an update. The problem persists with 5.3.0.24 (and with Pop_os 5.3.0-7625).

However, I have noticed that after a few days of use, without any further change, the problem disappears. Until I boot to Windows. After that, the problem appears again, stronger than ever.

Now this may explain a couple of observations. Maybe the problem is a result of some setting Windows does to the adapter through their driver, that persists when linux boots and doesn't work very well. Maybe once this setting is undone after a number of linux boot ups (and no windows), the problem goes away until Windows boots up and restarts the whole chain of events.

Also maybe this explains why some people (who don't dual boot) don't have the issue at all.

Sorry for the lack of technical description here. However the correlation between booting Windows and then Linux and the appearance of the problem is very strong. Whether that correlation also means causation is left for the more technical people to address.

Thank you.
