Network driver for Realtek 8852 20.10

I recently bought a new HP laptop (Pavilion 15-ec2003np), but when I installed ubuntu (already tried 20.04, 20.10, Pop!_OS 20.04, 20.10) it says that the network adapter wasn’t found and I can only have internet via cable.
Already searched for the drivers but I cant seem to find the correct one.
The laptop has a Realtek 8852 network adapter.

Has anyone else had the same issue?

Thank you in advance.

EDIT:
Reinstalled Ubuntu 21.04 and ran some commands to get some info.
Also, i went through the network troubleshoot from the ubuntu website (only thing i didnt try from there was using the windows drivers) but still no success.
Here are the results of the following commands:

>Solution :

Got it fixed.
In case anyone else has the same problem, all i did was follow the guide in this github repo: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89 I had already done that before but i was using the rtw88 instead of rtw89 (which was the one i needed).

Thank you everyone who tried to help.
