Wifi connection died on Budgie

**mugento** · January 6th, 2020

I did a search for this topic but came up empty-handed so please direct me if this has already been solved elsewhere.

We have Budgie 18.04.3 LTS running on our ancient Dell Inspiron N7110N. It was all running fine until a few days ago, when the internet connection suddenly ground to a halt. I am not sure exactly when the change happened because we were out of town for the holidays but I am pretty sure that it has been in the last week. Anyway, I have run a line test on the Dell sitting next to my work laptop (running on Windows) and our laptop is getting 0.1 Mbps while the work laptop gets ~30 Mbps download/5 Mbps upload. I tried restarting with an older kernel and I thought that fixed it at first but now it doesn't make any difference.

I have seen on this forum where other people installed a different driver (mine is a Realtek RTL810xE) or switched to a different antenna but I don't want to go off half-cocked and make things worse. A team member over on the Budgie forum suggested that I ask here and post the text below.

You may have gathered that I am not a developer/programmer so I can do basic stuff in Tilex but most likely need a bit more guidance than most of your other users. I would really appreciate any help in getting this going again. Thank you!

@mugento, when posting output of a script, or terminal output, please use BBCode code tags. This preserves formatting, avoids spurious smileys (there are no images in your output), and avoids the huge walls of text you posted. I've added code tags to your various posts. There is a link in my sig if you need to know how to use code tags.
