Try booting with the previous kernel and see if that changes anything.
Actually it seems I solved, or better, for some reason the wifi was
disconnected, but from a sw point of view, not with the buttons
combination, that are Fn+F2 in my case.
See below
other possible related packages:

Were there any other NetworkManager or Gnome packages updated?
No it seems not
I was in a directory named "firmware" (/lib/firmware) because I was
verifying my version of microcode, preparing to update with latest one
released by Intel, not related.
What I found is that I didn't noticed in control manager of Gnome, in
settings --> Wi-Fi I had in top right of the bar, here the image
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1l8CCL0tm_KGhDig7ypuxI_UGpyTHv7iS/view?us...
switched to off... I don't know why. I switched to On and all went good
I have a suspect. I was already connected to cable lan and I wanted to
connect also to wifi (something I'm often doing to open a VPN through the
wifi connection).
One possibility is that in new release if you are already connected through
cable lan, wifi becomes disabled... I have to verify
Or it was only a mis-typing at my side...
Now after booting today, I'm using wifi without problems but I have not my
lan cable connected
