Following on from here,

I have run a cable to the desktop so I now have internet. Now I just need to get the right driver for the ASUS PCE-ax58BT.
Results of inxi -Farz if it helps.

Your Asus network adapter is not present - the system does not see it.
Having a driver won’t help you when the system doesn’t even see the hardware.
Check electrical connection?

There is no Wireless device there, only the Gigabit cable.

I suspect hardware. a Driver won’t help if that’s the case.

Had it plugged in to the wrong slot. System now picks it up.

Where to from here?

You are on … connect to your wifi AP

From commandline you can do - or network manager if you prefer

ip link set wlp6s0 up

Well, apparently it has a driver:

And according to this the driver is in the kernel:

The device is supported by kernel versions 5.7 and newer according to the LKDDb:
