Hi I have exactly same problem as Intel Dual BandWireless-AC 3168 does not work on Ubuntu 16.04

I am new and I dont have 50 reputaion to comment on the question.

When I run

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:canonical-kernel-team/ppa

it shows

ERROR: '~canonical-kernel-team' user or team does not exist.
Error: 'ppa:canonical-kernel-team/ppa' invalid

I am connected to the internet already. Is there another way to get kernel 4.8?

  • If you're looking to install a new kernel to solve your wireless problem, why don't you just update to 16.10 where it's already supported? – heynnema Nov 13 '16 at 23:45

Maybe try manually adding the repo instead?

sudo echo "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/canonical-kernel-team/ppa/ubuntu xenial main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo echo "deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/canonical-kernel-team/ppa/ubuntu xenial main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update

NB. Be wary, as this is a PPA containing pre-release; unstable and testing kernels. These could potentially disable or break your system.
