First of all im sorry if this thread is duplicated with another one, but i didnt find a solution for the problem.

So i bought new laptop (Lenovo Y520) and setup dual boot Win10 with Ubuntu 16.04 and wireless doesnt work for the ubuntu (LAN works).

ifconfig

enp4s0    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr c8:5b:76:da:32:ba  
      inet addr:192.168.0.102  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

.

iwconfig

wlp3s0    IEEE 802.11  ESSID:off/any  
      Mode:Managed  Access Point: Not-Associated   Tx-Power=0 dBm   
      Retry short limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
      Power Management:on

enp4s0    no wireless extensions.

lo        no wireless extensions.

I ran some commands which found in another threads.

sudo lshw -class network

Run in a terminal

sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf <<< "blacklist ideapad_laptop"

and reboot. This should unblock your Wi-Fi.

Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart Pilot 6. I asked my company to switch to Linux and got a top of the line Lenovo Legion Y920 after successfully testing a live install on an Alienware 17 that had the same Killer 1535 network card. So naturally I was completely devastated when I installed 16.04 on my shiny new Lenovo and had no wifi access. I was at my wits end since I'm still a bit of a newb and I was going to have to return it and go back to MacOS because I leave for vacation and wouldn't have time inside the return window to debug the wifi. – anon58192932 Aug 29 '17 at 6:44
