It's interesting you had problems with the AX200 chip, I bought one for my X13 specifically because it has good kernel drivers. On Ubuntu, there's a "hardware enablement kernel" package, linux-generic-hwe-22.04, that's just the kernel from the latest Ubuntu back-ported to the LTS version. I find it tends to fix most issues with newer hardware. Maybe PopOS has something similar? Anyways, I found the MIMO in wifi 6 was better enough that I even upgraded another old laptop I have with an AX210 I found for $14.

Apparently with the T480, the AX200 isn't great, but I just bought an AX210 this week and it worked without configuring anything

  That AX200 bootup problem occurs on dual-boot Windows/Linux systems. The solution is to turn off Windows "Fast Startup" so that Windows does not leave the AX200 in a "locked" state between reboots. https://community.intel.com/t5/Wireless/Unstable-AX200-connection-in-Ubuntu-20-04/m-p/1205573#M30527 https://community.intel.com/t5/Wireless/Unstable-AX200-conne... Also, the latest Intel iwlwifi firmare is slowly evolving to address crummy AX200 speed issues that Windows does not suffer. On one of my laptops the AX200 is all over the place speedwise, but running wavemon shows it stabilize in the 600 range of rx and tx after awhile. Here's hoping for progress with that firmware on Linux. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/linux-firmware.git https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/linu...
