No WiFi connectivity on battery use
I bought a Dell xps 15 9570 laptop a few days ago and I am having connectivity issues.
When the laptop is running on battery, it doesn’t connect to the WiFi. But when it’s connected to electricity, it connects just fine.
Please I need your help for solving this.
Thanks

In a terminal window,journalctl --follow
, then unplug the laptop. If no interesting messages appear, check your BIOS - it may be set to disable WiFi on battery.

I checked the BIOS but I can not find any option for enabling or disabling WiFi on battery. Any idea where this option is exactly? Thanks
