+
+I wanted to share this since it seems like a common problem on the Surface Go and there isn't a step-by-step guide out there to fix it. A lot of thanks goes out to the community, especially u/jamesdutc for his post Surface Go: First Impressions. I also recommend anyone new to the Terminal to visit Linuxconfig.org - a resource that helped me greatly.

+How I got WiFi Working
+
+Step 1) Download the board.bin file from here: http://www.killernetworking.com/support/K1535_Debian/board.bin - I saved the file to Downloads -
+
+Step 2) Open the Terminal
+
+Step 3) Remove the current board.bin file from directory hw2.1:
+
+sudo rm /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw2.1/board.bin
+
+Step 4) Copy the board.bin file from Downloads to hw2.1*
+
+sudo cp ~/Downloads/board.bin /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw2.1
+
+Step 5) Remove the current board.bin file from directory hw3.0
+
+sudo rm /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board.bin
+
+Step 6) Copy the board.bin file from Downloads to hw3.0*
+
+sudo cp ~/Downloads/board.bin /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0
+
+Step 7) Restart
+
+And that's it! After going through this process my WiFi now works. Hopefully, others out there who are like me and unfamiliar with the Terminal will find this helpful.
