No network connection on new install
I'm totally 100% new to Linux and installed mint a few weeks ago but can't get wired or wireless network to work. I even installed on another HD but didn't help.
My system is a Dell-530 which once had WinXP. How should I go on getting things working?
Thanks

Hello, can you please post the result of the following terminal command, and enclose it in code tags? That's the button marked </>.
This is needed for pretty much any question about your system, so it's a good habit to post it straight away. So please copy this command, open a terminal window and paste it in, then press enter.
