No WiFi on SparkyLinux 8.2

Hello,

I've tried the live image of SparkyLinux 8.2 and have noticed that the WiFi isn't working. Neither scanning nor other operations of the nm tray are functioning. Using the nmcli still didn't help as nothing were shown on the interface other than "lo" which I can't use either to setup a WiFi connection.

Upon installing the live image onto my disk, same issue stated above is still encountered without any resolution found. My target machine is an ASUS Vivobook with intel core i3. The initial and succeeding boot doesn't have other kernels that can be selected. Same WiFi problem persists after every reboot.

Hence, I'm locked in the said issue.

Installing Debian 13.4 onto the same machine mentioned didn't have the same issue as the WiFi works perfectly.

Any advise on how to fix this?

Thank you.

  You can use inxi -Na, to find out the driver used by the wifi, you intend to use.

As you can see in the attached image:
