Centos 7: No Wifi Adapter found












0















I have dual booted centos 7 with Windows 10. Once centos 7 setup finished, no wifi connection was available. In the "settings > Wifi", I see a message saying "No wifi adapter found".



My wifi adapter is '"roadcom BCM43142 802.11 bgn Wi-Fi Adapter".



How can I solve this problem?

          I had a similar problem. I opened terminal and I ran the following commands which worked in my case:



          sudo rfkill unblock all
          sudo rfkill list
          sudo modprobe -r ideapad_laptop
