Firstly I am a complete noob when it comes to Linux so go easy on me, instructions with have to be super easy step by step! Thanks in advance.
I have just installed the latest version of Ubuntu along side Windows 10 on a Dell Precision 5520 laptop.
Everything worked fine for 24 hours but now I have no Wi-Fi, when I go to settings it says no Wi-Fi adapter detected.
I am currently using the wired Ethernet using a thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter but it is so slow it is not really usable.
How can I get the Wifi working again?
