I installed Ubuntu 17.04 on an older laptop.

Everything seems to be working fine, except the Wifi.

The Wifi networks are not showing in the ifconfig output, nor in the UI.

The owner of the laptop said Wifi used to work before, when the laptop was running Windows 10.

Relevant output:

$ lspci | grep Wireless
03:00.0 Network controller: MEDIATEK Corp. MT7630e 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter

I tried to restart the network-manager service, but that didn't solve it.

I feel like some drivers/modules are missing or have to be loaded, but I don't know how to do that.

How to solve this problem?


Note: Wireless was not working in the live USB as well. Wired connection does work.
