Short version: I downloaded Ubuntu from my Windows PC, made a bootable usb stick and installed it on an Acer Aspire laptop (which had windows before). Now my WIFI does not work and I am completely lost as I need to download everything via Windows PC (But what do I need in this case? As I understand too little I would need to start with random solution like try another Ubuntu version, ...).
Some details after research on the web:
ethtool => not found
ifconfig => not found
lsb_core => not found
iwlist scan
lo Interface does not support scanning
enp1s0f1 Interface does not support scanning
iwconfig
lo no wireless extension
enp1s0f1 no wireless extension
I use a "normal installation" and "installed third-party software".
From lshw:
Ethernet interface
RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller
Realtek
Name enp1s0f1
As said: I am new to Ubuntu and more information can be shared if I know for what I must look... Any help is highly appreciated!
