I'm brand spanking new to Ubuntu and the command-line. Just installed Ubuntu LTS 16.04.4 (dual-boot with Windows) today after taking it for a spin with booting from USB drive. But, alas, I'm having the same problem I was having with the test-drive, which is that I lose the ability to connect to WiFi after my computer goes into sleep/hibernate (those are the same thing, right?) OR after restarting. Wi-Fi Networks says I'm connected but when I ping 8.8.8.8 (one of the few commands I know), there is 100% packet loss and if I ping www.google.com it doesn't even recognize it. The only solution has been to reboot the modem. I'm on a Dell Inspiron 15 with a ZyXel PK5001 modem. When I typed "sudo lshw -class network" (per this post)into the terminal, I get this:



sudo lshw -class network



*-network

I've seen a few posts in searching with a similar problem but the answers are a bit beyond my current skill-set. I'm not a technophobe but I'm not a technophile either. At least not yet. I've got a ton of links that I've bookmarked (thanks to the newbie section) as well as some books from the library. But learning takes time. Right n
ow I need step by step instructions if I need to code anything in bash.



Thanks so much!
