This is my first post and also i'm new to Linux OS. So I hope I'm doing it correctly. My laptop is Lenovo T470p and the Linux mint version is 20.2. In my network options wireless option is not available. When i plug in the ethernet cable i can access the internet. So after doing some search i have found lot of people have faced this issue. I have tried some fixes also but still no luck. Hope someone can help me on this matter. Following is the result after i run command "lshw -C network".
Code: Select all
:~$ lshw -C network

Try a BIOS reset and see if there are any BIOS updates. I saw a similar issue on another Lenovo model a year or so ago and couldn't get it fixed
