No network controller found - Ubuntu 20.04

When booting my Laptop today I noticed my bluetooth and wifi was not working. Both state in the settings that no adapter is found. I started searching for solutions but nothing worked so far, and I've got the impression that at least the wireless network controller should be found. When I do lspci |grep Network nothing gets displayed.

When only using lspci I can at least find my ethernet, USB, ... controllers, but nothing stating wireless, WLAN, or similar. I can neither install additional drivers over Software & Updates as none get displayed, even when mounting a fresh iso and trying to take the drivers from there.

Using sudo lshw -class network gets me:

I also tried Ubuntu 20.04 from a Live USB, but no wifi or bluetooth adapters were found there either. Ubuntu is the only system installed.

My guess now is that the hardware somehow broke, it is an older laptop. Is there any way to fix this, is it something different? I would really appreciate any help.

Thanks
