Are you using the unoffcial non-free firmware .iso to install from? Are you installing firmware-amdgpu from the non-free repository if not? You may just be hitting the generic "I have a brand new laptop - why won't it install" problem common to every Linux for a short while as the newest hardware lacks immediate support. What does lspci report for the Wifi chipset in the laptop itself? All the very best, as ever, Andy C.
