    The title of your post does not match the body. I assume you are following a guide you've found somewhere to fix your wifi, but please clarify that. Wireless issues are hardware-specific so please provide details of the device that is not working. See this question for the kind of info needed – Zanna Mar 26 '18 at 14:22

    Whatever problem you are having won't be solved by installing a driver suite that is 2 1/2 years older than the default driver in 17.10. Please tell us what problem you are having. Welcome to Ask Ubuntu. – chili555 Mar 26 '18 at 14:53
