What WiFi chip are you using?
Which release of Ubuntu?
Have you used a wired connection to get full updates and use the additional drivers application to, maybe, install drivers?

I have used a wired internet to get full updates. However i have not used the additional drivers application to install drivers. It would be great if you showed me how to. Thank you in advance.
