So... I recently installed Ubuntu on one of my old PCs out of curiosity, and it was working well.

My PC doesn't have an in-built wi-fi adapter so I use a USB one, and since wi-fi was slow anyways, I used an old router as an adapter and now I have a wired connection to the old router while the old router accesses the wi-fi of the main house router. Now get this: one day, I log in, and there is no wi-fi symbol, no wired connection, nothing.

I tried the solutions posted on this thread, as it matched my problem the closest: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2491006

Are there any tests I should run? Or data that I should post?

Too many variables. Do some clever testing and eliminate some possibilities. Start with the wired connection -- it's easier to troubleshoot. – user535733 Mar 26 '24 at 12:45

Does this answer your question? My wireless/WiFi connection does not work. What information is needed to diagnose the issue? – waltinator Mar 26 '24 at 13:15

Is there any reason not to suspect something is wrong with "the old router"? – Organic Marble Mar 26 '24 at 18:59
