Home wifi working but wifi networks interface stuck in searching (lemmy.world)

I am in the very strange situation, since I installed Ubuntu, in which my laptop is connecting to the wifi, but if I open the wifi settings page it stays on "searching for networks" forever. Since I am planning to use this laptop at a conference where I would need a connection, I would like to solve this somehow.

I have used the "wireless-info" tool and the pastebin can be found here .

Only things I noticed are the Intel AX201 controller that in other forums is said to not work at all (not my case), and the fact that my home network connection is defined by a networkd yaml, as opposed to the others (my parent's house) that are defined by a NetworkManager yaml.

I am a beginner so these are all just guesses from me.

Is there a fix or even a separate software I can use to manage my connections, like adding a new one without having to write myself a new yaml file?
