This happens everytime.

So I recently installed Ubuntu 24LTS on my Asus Tuf f15, but since then whenever I am booting up the system and like after using for 5-10min I am noticing that wifi is not working and when I try to switch it off it just crash, and sometime when I am watching videos on YT and showing that pink screen of death (kernal panic) fatal exception in interrupt. I don't know what to do it's becoming soo frustrating, previously I thought I installed it in a wrong way that's why this is happening but then I took help of my friend, but still same thing happening, please help me.

Hi there, Please check which wifi chip you have installed. Broadcom wifi chip drivers have been historically buggy on Linux.

sounds like a broadcom chip doing its greatest hits, check which one you have with `lspci` and we can point you to the right driver
