Folks,
I have a Lenovo Legion Y7000 with dual boot system (Win10 and Ubuntu 18.04). The internal wireless card is Realtek 8822be and I have also attached a Panda wireless USB drive (as I was unable to get the internal wireless card working). When I go to Wi-Fi Settings in Ubuntu, I see “No Wi-Fi Adapter Found” for both internal and USB Wi-Fi drives. But the following commands actually show that Ubuntu has detected my Wi-Fi chips:

Finally, when I run lshw -C network, I see:

Can anyone give me some hints on what the problem is and how I can fixed the “No Wi-Fi Adapter Found” issue? I appreciate your help very much!
I have tried many of the approaches suggested for similar (but not identical) problems without any success.
