networking - Ethernet port and WiFi adapter not detected, Ubuntu 16.04 - Ask Ubuntu
excuse me newbie mistakes i'm making, first time running linux distro. i'm running ubuntu 16.04 off live usb drive on dell vostro 2510. if plug ethernet cable in, doesn't show under network. cable , connection work fine on other computers, i'm thinking it's os not detecting port on computer. same thing happens wifi, os doesn't detect laptop's wifi adapter.
i've tried disabling , reenabling networking taskbar. here's screenshot network settings:
here's ifconfig:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ ifconfig lo link encap:local loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 scope:host loopback running mtu:65536 metric:1 rx packets:4852 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 tx packets:4852 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1 rx bytes:358752 (358.7 kb) tx bytes:358752 (358.7 kb)
i'm left no way access internet on machine. how can fix this?
can see on taskbar wifi icon? if yes, click on & ensure 'enable networking' & enable wi-fi checked. try first. hope it'll helps.
start adding ethernet first & set automatic settings see how works.
click add button adding new network
select ethernet & click create
checked box in picture
key in device address(open terminal, type ifconfig & see hwaddr) set automatic & checked default
leave rest & click save. see how works!
