Re: Have a problem to connect to the WiFi
Latest Linux Mint is 18.3, not 18.
Are you using Cinnamon, KDE, XFCE or Mate?
The easiest way to answer that question, and give is lots of useful information about your hardware, is to post the result of the following terminal command, and enclose it in code tags. That's the button marked </>. Can you please do that?
This is needed for pretty much any question about your system, so it's a good habit to post it straight away.

Re: Have a problem to connect to the WiFi
Have you installed the drivers specific to your hardware?
You can go to Settings: Driver Manager and see if there are any suggested driver there. If positive, install and reboot.
