I recently installed Ubuntu on another laptop that I have in the house for my kids to use but the only issue I am having is that the wifi does not seem to want to work. I would assume it has something to do with drivers but have been unsuccessful in finding out how to fix the issue.
Any help is appreciated.
Could you clarify if this is for example due to the low internet connection or Wifi adapter is not working or it could not connect at all to the wifi because it could have one of these three explication?
What’s the laptop, make, model?
Does it even have wifi?
Have you used wifi on it before?
Further to my first reply.
Try running a debian netinst boot disc, it identifies my network interfaces.
The classic way is to use Knoppix, excellent by the way.
Thanks! Will try this
I don’t know if you solved the problem, but if anyone else has this problem, you can manually download the following packages and connect to wifi.
