No WiFi adapter Found on Linux?
So I just got a new laptop and I already knew I wanted to download Linux on it. I did some research and decided on Ubuntu. After removing windows and installing Ubuntu 18.04.1. I tried to install things. That's when I realized I didn't have WiFi. So I went to the settings and it said "No WiFi Adapter Found". So I googled and tried multiple things. Nothing worked. So I removed Ubuntu 18.04 and tried 14.04 (As suggested by another user). Still no luck. One thing to note is when I go to my Bios and go to Boot order. It has an exclamation mark on the left of "Network adapter". I don't know if this means something. One last thing is when I first installed Ubuntu 18.04, it asked which WiFi I wanted to use and it listed all my networks. (Meaning it was working when I was installing it). If you need any extra information, please ask. I've been on this for hours.
