Bluetooth working very unreliably Ubuntu 18.04
2 days ago my Bluetooth stopped working on my PC, and I tried booting to the Ubuntu installation disk and it also didn't work (it also didn't work on Windows). Today, I turned on my computer to find that Bluetooth suddenly started working again. At the moment, my Bluetooth keeps turning on and off randomly. Could this be a hardware issue or a software issue? I'm thinking it could be hardware because of the fact that it doesn't work in Windows at the same time that it doesn't work in Linux, and how could I diagnose a Bluetooth hardware issue?
This is not a duplicate: Bluetooth randomly cutting out in Ubuntu
The reason is because my Bluetooth isn't restored when I restart my PC.

If bluetooth is part of the wifi card, I would remove and reinsert the wifi card to see if bluetooth works normally again
