I am having trouble connecting to the internet

I'm going through the troubleshooting procedure to try to figure out why my
laptop which is a Toshiba Satellite and I have moved to I think it's 17 .04
anyway I can't get the internet to connect using my Wi-Fi. But I do have
internet connection when I use tether from my Android. I guess what I'm
asking is I'm trying to find out if I need to download a new driver or
what's happening here if you need more information please let me know I'm
new to this and I'm trying to learn everything I can I appreciate all your
help

Ronald Michael; Hello -

I be that harbinger if ill news -
Ubuntu 19.04 (Disco Dingo) was the 30th release of Ubuntu, support ended January 2020.
               https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2020-January/005263.html

This is fixable for sure But then still with the release upgrade ahead of you. Maybe the best course is a clean fresh install of say 18.04 that has support until 2023 ?

What path do you desire to pursue ?

I suggest you wipe the install off and do a clean install of Focal (Ubuntu 20.04). Focal is the latest release of Ubuntu and supported for 5 years as it is LTS. You will upgrade seamlessly into the release candidate (at the time of writing this is still prerelease).

Disco is no longer supported by Canonical or the Ubuntu community. It is EOL (end of life). There are no packages for it. It's like looking for updates and support for Windows 98. They don't exist

Thanks for your answer. I do appreciate your time and support. I did do a
complete install of 19.04 I think it was. I still don't have any internet
access though. Just have to keep trying. Again thank you for your time man

Ubuntu 19.04 is not supported any more

"Fetched 88.8 kB in 11s (8,334 B/s)"

Your log shows that you do have internet connection, but you have redundancies in your sources.list configuration file.

What output do you receive for the commands

uname -a
lsb_release -crid
sudo rm -v /etc/apt/sources.list.d/disco-partner.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade

In my personal option the easiest way for you to proceed is:
- do an in-place upgrade to Ubuntu eoan in due course (as long as the disco repositories still exist),
- and in a few weeks' time when Ubuntu focal is finally published, do another in-place upgrade to Ubuntu 2020 (focal).

Thanks, I'll check it out.

This question was expired because it remained in the 'Open' state without activity for the last 15 days.
