Connection failed activation of network connection failed

[th3gentleman]

Background: I'm dual booting Ubuntu 18.04 alongside windows10. Everything was fine and dandy up to the wifi issue. The wifi takes 30-45 seconds to eventually end up giving me the error "Connection failed\n Activation of network connection failed"

Here's the following information if it may be helpful: http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Sgy7CM4y7v/

It seems that when I close my lid on the laptop and reopen it > airplane mode is on and it says on a greyed icon of the wifi that the "Wi-Fi hardware disabled"
I tried a whole bunch of other solutions and decided to make a ubuntu forum account to get the real experts help.


currently using a ethernet cord to connect. Sorry for any noob traits I displayed while posting appreciate any help...
