Clean Install On New Laptop Wi-Fi Issues
My wireless has suddenly became disabled by hardware switch, BIOS, rfkill, fn+f8 do nothingWLAN LED constantly on (T410, Xubuntu)Installing Intel iwlwifi firmware for UNCLAIMED Wireless 8260?Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 on Ubuntu 16.04 doesn't recognize WIFIASUS Q551LN on 16.04 with Intel AC7260 wireless Rev 2Intel Wireless 8265: Weak wifi strengthXubuntu 16.04.3 LTS wifi hard blocked on laptop without hardware switchIntel Wifi device slowIssues with new Intel wireless cardLaptop won't recognise wifi card anymore
Having installed Xubuntu 18.04 on a formerly brand new Windows 10 (yeah I know) laptop HP cf0014dx, the wifi was working normally in Windows but after the Xubuntu install it and the card itself where no where to be found. I spent several (+4) hrs reading what has been posted about that issue and there were no clear cut answers to my issue. I found a lot of tutorials that no longer apply because their command lines are deprecated.
I am doing this for a friend who does not have the time and myself am very new to Linux.
What I've found in Network Connections is that the LAN card is Realtek r8169 and connecting via cable is okay but the wifi card shows as 'unclaimed' with all zeros for information. I went to the HP site and found that the WLAN is Intel dual band (ranging from AC3160-AC9560 driver compatibility) ...oddly the Bluetooth portion works. I found nothing in BIOS that relates to wifi nor are there any on/off keys shown; only the Airplane mode which turns off/on the BT and I assume the wifi.
I've done full installs of Xubuntu on USBs with no issues so I'm able to navigate around but this thing has me flummoxed. Now I'm back to a vanilla install and in hopes someone can point me in the right direction.
Sorry for the long post but it was the only way I knew to describe it.

Uselshwto identify the exact chipset, then search for how others installed kernel modules to handle that chipset. A few are entirely incompatible with Linux. Output showing the exact problem is much more helpful than descriptions. Tutorials that "no longer apply" might still apply after all; the basic theory of installing wifi drivers for lousy manufacturers' hardware has changed little in 15 years.
