[lightworkert]

Just got Mint going but the Wifi is not working...

lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 net; rfkill list

[Pierre]

you seem to be on the right track, with what you found so far,
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1067286 ... d-in-18-04
so try that as well, to see if that will work.

[lightworkert]

@Pierre, Thank you. I'm pretty new to Linux, day one...

I went to the link and got got stuck at: "using your favorite text editor, edit blacklist.conf."

Not sure how using the text editor will help, but maybe I'm not understanding what they mean by text editor.

Try #7 here:
https://easylinuxtipsproject.blogspot.c ... k.html#ID7

[lightworkert]

Argh, looks like it was going to work until I got to this:
remote: Repository not found.
fatal: repository 'https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git/' not found

I'm super new, did I do something wrong? I just copy/pasted my way to this point.

Try #7 here:
https://easylinuxtipsproject.blogspot.c ... k.html#ID7

[sleeper12]

Not your fault, that command just doesn't seem to be working anymore. Not sure why.

[sleeper12]

Try it again, I think it may be fixed now with a new command there.

[lightworkert]

Was able to work though the steps this time but for some reason it still has not worked.
And where it used to Say "Wireless Unavailable", now there is nothing.

I see the toggle option for the wireless now, but it's not searching or showing any options for connectivity.

Yes, Secure boot was off, and after this code it says that the Wireless is Unavailable.

Wow, not sure what happened...
It was not working, I was frustrated so I gave it some space, came back, turn on and I see all of the options and everything is working.
But I just went to connect the list to connect disappears...
Crazy machine, please help.
Thank you.
