I have a dual boot HP Laptop, with Ubuntu 16.04 and Windows 10. While wifi works fine in Windows 10, wireless option is not available in Ubuntu. I have disabled Secure Boot, and tried various solutions provided in this forum. None is working.



Output of sudo iwlist scan is:



eno1 Interface doesn't support scanning.
lo Interface doesn't support scanning.


The output of:



wget -N -t 5 -T 10 https://github.com/UbuntuForums/wireless-info/raw/master/wireless-info && chmod +x wireless-info && ./wireless-info


is in this link: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/3tqfgVShtB/



Any help will be much appreciated.

With a temporary working internet connection by ethernet, tethered or whatever means possible, open a terminal and do:



sudo apt update
sudo apt install build-essential dkms git
git clone -b 4.10-down https://github.com/jeremyb31/rtl8723de.git
sudo dkms add ./rtl8723de
sudo dkms build rtl8723de/5.1.1.8_21285.20171026_COEX20170111-1414
sudo dkms install rtl8723de/5.1.1.8_21285.20171026_COEX20170111-1414
sudo modprobe 8723de


Your wireless should now be working.
