Hello good folks!
So I reformated my Ubuntu partition today after a major ongoing issue I've had for a couple of weeks.
Anyhow, the issue I'm having is that I cant get my Wireless to work.
I know it's a common issue, and I've fixed it before. Just cant recall exactly how I did.
The first thing that struck me was that I couldn't enable Wi-Fi while installing, and that issue stil remains.
The second thing was that when I ran "rfkill list all" I got:
0: ideapad_wlan: Wireless LAN
Soft Blocked: no
Hard Blocked: yes
1: ideapad_bluetooth: Bluetooth
Soft Blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
2: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft Blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
3: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft Blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
When I run "iwconfig" the return is:
lo no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11abgn ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Acces Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=0 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
When I run "lshw" I get the following:
*-network DISABLED
description: Wireless interface
product: Wireless 7260
vendor: Intel Corporation
physical id: 0
bus info: pci@0000:01:00.0
logical name: wlan0
version: 6b
width: 64 bits
clock: 33MHz
capabilities: pm msi pciexpress bus_master cap_list ethernet physical wireless

resources: irq:60 memory:b0400000-b0401fff
Upon running "lspci" I can only find one row about networks, which is the following:
Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 (I expected that I would get two rows about it)
The other rows is info about: Audio device, 2x USB, Host bridge, 2x Signal processing controller, PCI bridge, ISA bridge, SATA controllers, SMBus
Unsure if this info is of any use.
When running "lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net" I get:
Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wirelss 7260 [8086:08b2] (rev 6b)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Wireless-N 7260 [8086:c262]
Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
Running "lsmod" gives me:
iwlmvm 161349 0
iwlwifi 165398 1 iwlmvm
"ifconfig" gives me the following:
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
inet6 addr: : :1/128 Scope:Host
UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1

collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
RX bytes:10112 (10.1 KB) TX bytes:10112 (10.1 KB)
I don't have any ethernet converter for my laptop, so I havn't tried anything of that.
However! What I can recall is that I'm pretty sure I had to blacklist one item last time I ran Ubuntu on this machine.
Is there any other information you want or more code snippets just say so.
All help is welcome!
