Hi, I use Ubuntu 20.04 LTS version in my VivoBook 15_ASUS Laptop X507UF. I live in a remote area where the only option for Internet is my cell phones network data. I use this mobile internet via Wi-Fi connection.

The problem is, if I do not start the mobile Personal Hotspot before starting my laptop the internet connection via Wi-Fi does not work. The Wi-Fi network icon on top right corner comes with a question mark in the middle.

The Internet does not come even after I restart the NetworkManager.

I get the Internet connection only after I restart my laptop. That means,

1. At first I have to enable Personal Hotspot from my mobile and then
2. I have to start my laptop.

Not the other way around.

Some times I forget this and I need to restart my laptop over again to get the Internet Connection.

I believe this is a bug in the Wi-Fi connection module.

Thanks.
