Hi all,
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="20.04.1 LTS (Focal Fossa)"
ID=ubuntu
ID_LIKE=debian
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS"
Running KDE
A weird thing has happened.
There was a momentary mains power loss, and of course the computers shut down.
My Linux machine rebooted and reported no problem however, it no longer has access to the internet.
It is the data to make that connection that seems to be missing.
This computer is hard wired to a BT wifi hub.
Now folks be gentle. I'm 84 and the head doesn't work like it used to.
Neither does the memory.
Would somebody be kind enough to give me step by step instructions for looking at and re-establishing that connection please.
