Hello, I am running ubuntu 18.04, kernel 5.4.0-42-generic. Last week, the internet randomly stopped working. Turns out the network manager somehow disappeared, so I downloaded the debians on another computer, transferred via USB, and then installed. Now my ethernet works, but my wifi is still not working. When I go to settings and click on wifi, it lists "no wifi adapter found". I figure this must be a software issue, because the wifi was working two weeks ago. I have tried updating the computer, both from command line and software center, but this has not solved the problem.
produces:Code:sudo lshw -C network
Based on that output, I found this driver here: https://linux-hardware.org/index.php...24fd-8086-9010 that I think is the right one for my wifi adapter. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to install it. I downloaded the file, and went into software and updates-->additional drivers. Here, I can see listed:Code:*-network UNCLAIMED description: Network controller product: Wireless 8265 / 8275 vendor: Intel Corporation physical id: 0 bus info: pci@0000:6c:00.0 version: 78 width: 64 bits clock: 33MHz capabilities: pm msi pciexpress cap_list configuration: latency=0 resources: memory:dc500000-dc501fff *-network description: Ethernet interface physical id: 2 logical name: enx106530d24185 serial: 10:65:30:d2:41:85 size: 1Gbit/s capacity: 1Gbit/s capabilities: ethernet physical tp mii 10bt 10bt-fd 100bt 100bt-fd 1000bt 1000bt-fd autonegotiation configuration: autonegotiation=on broadcast=yes driver=r8152 driverversion=v1.10.11 duplex=full ip=192.168.1.113 link=yes multicast=yes port=MII speed=1Gbit/s
Option 3 is selected, and the other two are greyed out. The "revert" and "apply changes" buttons at the bottom are also greyed out.Code:Intel Corporation: Wireless 8265/8275 This device is not working. (option 1) Using iwlwifi driver backport in DKMS format from backport-iwlwifi-dkms (open source) (option 2) Continue using a manually installed driver (option 3) Do not use the device
Any suggestions? Help would be greatly appreciated!
