This is what I would do:
ls /lib/systemd/system/NetworkManager.service
double check that the output it's not found
- If the file is not there, add the service unit back

# We want to enable NetworkManager-wait-online.service whenever this service
# is enabled. NetworkManager-wait-online.service has
# WantedBy=network-online.target, so enabling it only has an effect if
# network-online.target itself is enabled or pulled in by some other unit.
Also=NetworkManager-wait-online.service
Save into NetworkManager.service
- Run
sudo mv NetworkManager.service /lib/systemd/system/
- start the service using
systemctl start NetworkManager.service
Then update and upgrade.
