This is my WiFi card after upgrade to Catalina. It's an AR9565. Here's what System Report shows. Any idea to help ?

I updated flawlessly from Mojave to Catalina and had the same issue. I ended reinstalling Mojave due to the necessity of wifi. Will wait a bit before updating pending the WIFI solution.
 
do a search for 64 bit software i had the same prob but with a tp link usb wifi found new 64 bit software as old is prob 32 bit .

found this it may help ( get it working on Catalina by copying the entire patched IO80211Family.kext from my Mojave volume into /System/Library/Extensions, replacing the Catalina kext.)

Thanks. Will give it a try this weekend.

i think i solved this problem make sure that you copied coreCapture and it's responder to S/L/E and IOFamily to Other
and rebuild caches, here Screens after installing.

AR9565 is working for me in Catalina 10.15.6 using corecapture.kext, CoreCaptureResponder.kext and modified IO80211Family.kext. Attached below.
