Wifi/Ethernet not working on initial setup

Tried disabling both Ethernet and Wifi in device manager, after a cold boot i still have the same issue.

Unfortunately i don’t have an Android and have only tried tethering on iPhone, ik iPhone does have a couple issues so that may be why.

These are the outputs on the installed system

I have tried unplugging LAN and Wi-Fi before startup unfortunately that didn’t work either

This helped, after doing this my device has showed up in ip link but its listed as Dormant, forcing it up or scanning for wifis hasnt worked

If it is listed as dormant,
maybe try

sudo ip link set <wl01:use the one you see in ip a> mode default
