Brand new to Linux Mint.
OS installed correctly. Wireless was initially available on my Lenovo.
Must have messed up something when looking at Driver Manager. Wireless now unavailable. Tried to Reset within the Mint Network software. Didn't work. Reset the router and have rebooted. NADA.
I have the name of the Network Adapter on the Lenovo. Any troubleshooting help would be appreciated.

Re: Wireless now unavailable
Only a guess, but is there a wifi switch or keyboard key that may be off? See here:

Also, click the connection icon lower right tray & be sure 'Enable Wi-Fi' is checked.

Thanks for the reply. PROBLEM SOLVED.
Prior to messing around with the Driver Manager, I had used Timeshift to create a backup. I don't know whether this was prescient but it certainly was fortunate. I just needed to figure out how run RESTORE. Whew! I'm back in business.

Good....Timeshift has saved me a few times as well.
