The most recent "fixs" that I have found and tried to no avail. first things first secure boot was deactivated then the following steps were taken.

sudo apt update

sudo apt dist-upgrade

reboot

no luck, also tried.

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install broadcom-sta-dkms

reboot

no luck again

as well as others that have seemed to fix the problem for other people but still not me. I have installed pastebin and have run

wget -N -t 5 -T 10 https://github.com/UbuntuForums/wireless-info/raw/master/wireless-info && \

chmod +x wireless-info && \

./wireless-info

as another forum suggested but I am unsure where to go or what to do next. Help please!

Disable Secure Boot in BIOS and all should work. The driver is installed.

  • I have disabled secure boot and it says that it is booting in insecure mode on each boot now. Sorry Forgot to mention that. – Evolvoodoo Apr 09 '20 at 19:05
  • Does Wi-Fi work? – Pilot6 Apr 09 '20 at 19:05
  • It does not. I had disabled secure boot before trying any of the steps I described above. – Evolvoodoo Apr 09 '20 at 19:06
  • The script says that Secure Boot is enabled. You should disable it in BIOS, not anywhere else. – Pilot6 Apr 09 '20 at 19:07
  • okay can you give me the code to do that again. maybe I did not use the proper code. – Evolvoodoo Apr 09 '20 at 19:09
  • There is no "code" to do it. It is not a terminal command. You should do it in BIOS. – Pilot6 Apr 09 '20 at 19:10

    okay well then that is different I used a "command" in the terminal to force the laptop to open in the menu of the bios to turn off secure boot. if there is no command then I didn't do it right. I guess I need to figure out how to properly do that then. – Evolvoodoo Apr 09 '20 at 19:12
  • Okay I have confirmed to have disabled secure boot as can be seen on the new wireless-info script seen here https://pastebin.com/8eDF8XyV. I have restarted twice since turning off secure boot to no change. Any further advice? – Evolvoodoo Apr 09 '20 at 19:36
