in settings it said:
no Wi-Fi adapter found.

on the same computer there is a windows 10 system and it can find the same AC 9462 properly.

First switched the kernel based on the ticket
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-oem-osp1/+bug/1835879
but then the sound stop working, so gave up this solution (it may work for a different laptop)

then try
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1835858
and used the .deb from the private repo of the dev solved this issue.

Worked.
Until upstream.

for those who just want a solution directly without going though the posts:

wget https://launchpad.net/~vicamo/+archive/ubuntu/backport-iwlwifi-dkms/+files/backport-iwlwifi-dkms_8042-0ubuntu1_all.deb

sudo apt install ./backport-iwlwifi-dkms_8042-0ubuntu1_all.deb

I installed your .deb file, the issue: "No Wi-Fi adapter found" still shown. It does not work on my laptop (Dell Vostro 5490).
After upgrading the kernel to Ubuntu-oem-osp1-5.0.0-1028.32, Wi-Fi is working as well on my laptop. But the sound stops working.
