Need to manually enable wireless interface on boot

[pandap]

Hi,

I have LM 18.3 Cinnamon (recently upgraded from 18.2). When I boot my system it does not automatically detect wireless. The wireless interface is down by default.

Everytime I have run the following two commands to get it running:

Code: Select all

sudo ifconfig rename3 up
sudo service network-manager restart

It is not a lot of work, however I was hoping to find a way to get the system to enable the wireless interface and connect automatically on boot rather than me doing it manually.
Would appreciate help on this.

thank you.

If those commands work for you then put them in /etc/rc.local before the line that reads exit 0 and without sudo:

Code: Select all

sudo nano -w /etc/rc.local

ctrl-o <enter> to save.
ctrl-x to exit.

Reboot.
