wifi connections not showing up for ubuntu 16.04

Question

Been trying since yesterday night, with lots of googling.. followed many instructions from different websites that had similar posts, but none of these worked. so decided to post a question myself.

I'm new to Linux, so please excuse me if I sound ignorant.

I don't see any connection listed. could someone please shed some light?

Run the command sudo service network-manager restart in your terminal. It worked for me. Hope it works for you too! — Gautam Vashisht, Nov 10 '16 at 11:42
