I'm trying to make wifi work on this ThinkPad notebook, but got no success so far. Can anyone help me to fix this? Here are some informations on the system:

Thanks for the attention!

What worked for me was disabling Secure Boot, following more or less the instructions given in this answer and this post. From the latter I'll be copying most of the steps (Method 2), just to keep this whole question complete by itself.

1) Run sudo mokutil --disable-validation and choose an easy password (like 12345678).

2) Reboot the system and press any key when you see the blue screen (MOK management).

3) Select Change Secure Boot state.

4) Enter the password you had selected in Step 1 and press Enter, paying attention to the description.

5) Select Yes to disable Secure Boot in shim-signed.

6) Press Enter key to finish the whole procedure.

7) After this you should be able to reboot and connect to your Wifi normally.

To re-enable Secure Boot validation in shim, simply run sudo mokutil --enable-validation.
