I have an HP laptop 7 months old (10 inch screen) I have been running Ubuntu on it for 6 months without any problems, yesterday the upgrade for Ubuntu 16-04 appeared which I eagerly accepted, after completing the download and set up I have 16-04 but sadly my internet is now disabled,I've tried the obvious things and some fixes on this site but to no avail. Any one out there who can help ??????

Are you using a wireless connection?

If yes, used this tutorial to solve my problem.

(I did it after an upgrade in 14.04, but maybe it can work in your case too.)
