The wifi adapter in my laptop is Realtek RTL8852AE. I am currently dual-booting Windows 11 and Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS. I've gone through multiple options for what it could be, installed rtw89's repository for the realtek driver. Another suggestion was that windows might be shutting off the adapter to conserve power, but an option for unticking that for the adapter wasn't available when I tried in Windows 11.
Edit: The powermanagement tab does not appear when I go to properties for my network adapter in windows. I've tried enabling it with the CsEnabled registry key in Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power and then rebooting, alas it does not appear.
