Bug Description
After updating to 5.4.0-56 (generic) on Mint 19.3, Wi-Fi cannot complete connection to network with Netgear A6210 USB adapter (Mediatek MT7612U chipset). Network manager can see available networks, but attempting to connect to a network stalls on "connecting" and does not complete connection. Reverting to 5.4.0-54 solves problem. I did not see this problem after updating to 5.4.0-56 on a 10-year-old Toshiba Satellite laptop (also Mint 19.3), so it appears related to the Netgear/Mediatek hardware.
