I am at work with my laptop with that card, and I am currently seeing -77dBm in an area of the building with just ok coverage. My reported link quality is 38/70 and my WiFi is performing well. You are seeing a signal about 6dB stronger than what I am seeing. Your Tx retries seems a little high.
All you have reported is a low signal level. Are you experiencing any other performance issues with the link?
Is this in the 2.4GHz band or the 5GHz band?
Now the link quality is 57% (source: wavemon) and the band is the 2.4Hgz, but after walking up to the router the band moved to 5GHz.
What puzzles me is that my old ASUS with the same distro, in the same network and in the same location has a good signal level. It does not seem possible that a new laptop with the characteristics of the InfinityBook Pro Gen 7 could have a clearly worse performance than a 2015-laptop.

That chip set is very well supported and, in fact, is the very chip set it my Asus Vivobook.
