I am posting a follow up question to the below linked question:
Lenovo 18.04 No Wi-Fi Adapter Found
After reading the comments it seems that the advice works…for someone who has a wifi connection, which I cannot establish. So I was wondering if I could perhaps get chili555 or a similarly kind and knowledgeable soul to continue writing the advice for how to get the missing files when no wifi or hard wired connection can be established?
For reference, I'm running a fresh Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on a brand new Lenovo Yoga C930, dual booted system. I ran
lspci -nnk | grep 0280 -A3
And received the output
6b:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless-AC 9260 [8086:2526] (rev 29)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device [8086:0014]
Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
Kernel modules: iwlwifi
Some of the tools that I have access to: I have access to a separate machine with interwebs and I can transfer files via usb. I also have access to the internet via Windows 10, and I have heard that Ubuntu can read data files on an NTFS partition on Windows 10, but I have not been successful at figuring how to set this up or verify it.
I'm a similar level ubuntu practitioner to the question I am referencing, so please be gentle with me (and feel free to direct me to resources that can improve my literacy!)
Thank you all so much for your help!
