Before you reinstall, when was the last time you rebooted the router?

Larry78723

Please open a terminal window and enter these 2 commands

wget -N -t 5 -T 10 https://github.com/UbuntuForums/wireless-info/raw/master/wireless-info && chmod +x wireless-info && ./wireless-info

Code: Select all

cat wireless-info.txt | nc termbin.com 9999

Booting from power on I don't get an internet connection. When I re-boot via reboot selection it connects OK. I'm connecting via Ethernet via a TP Link Wi-Fi extender. Android mobiles near to this extender find and connect to internet OK. If I use Wi-Fi in place of Ethernet the same happens but sev...

I don't know if this could be part of the problem, but I'm going to throw it out there....

This software hasn't been updated since 2017 and is labeled for Ubuntu 14. What version of LM are you running?

Larry78723

Try creating a new wired connection and test that. I was having a similar problem and that's how I fixed it.

Please post an inxi -Fxxxzr report. This will give us a concise overview of your hardware and on how Mint sees it. Here is how to generate the report and post it: Open a terminal window (Ctrl-Alt-t). Make it fullscreen to avoid unneeded linebreaks or chopped lines. Execute the command inxi -Fxxxz...

What SSID is being used to connect the wifi?

Larry78723

The only way to tell how well it will work with LM20.1 would be to create the installation USB and test the laptop using it when it arrives. You could return the laptop if it doesn't test well.

Sonya has reached End of Life and is no longer supported. I suggest you do a clean install of either LM19.x or 20.x. If you open a terminal full screen and run the following command, we can make recommendations on which would work best based on your hardware. inxi -Fxxxzr exactly as it has been type...

You can try this:

 sudo sed -i 's/3/2/' /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf

REBOOT

Please post the results of the following command:

inxi -Nn

Do not edit out any info.

Like you, I prefer Thunderbird. I tried Evolution and found the setup to be confusing, so I abandoned it.

Larry78723

Please follow the instructions I gave in my last post. I should also mention that LM18.x is no longer supported, it has reached End of Life. There will be no further security or program updates. You should install LM19.2 or LM19.3, they are the last 32 bit versions of Mint that will be made.

Larry78723

I'm totally out of ideas.

Larry78723

I have basically the same ethernet (mine is I218-LM) and it's working fine with the same driver. Let's try this:

Code: Select all

sudo ethtool -i enp0s25

I'd like to compare to what I have.

Larry78723

Have you tried a different ethernet cable? Everything you've posted looks correct. I'm out of ideas.
