[Bug 1903312] Re: Ubiquity not selecting correct timezone when connected to Internet

[Leó Kolbeinsson]

@brian-murray

You have not missed anything from my testing.
However please note - This has only been a problem with my Lenovo box and not a problem with Ubuntu.
The most recent occurence was with Xubuntu Impish  daily iso - 20210613.

I agree it seems to be related to the driver not being installed for the
WiFi adapter.

Bug description:
  Installing Xubuntu 21.04 daily 20201106 ISO

  1. Connected to Internet via WiFi connection
  2. Boot Hirsute Xubuntu  and run the installer
  3. Advance to the time zone selector 

  The correct time zone in my instance should be Reykjavik,Iceland

  However the result is New York
