I just bought the XPS 13 developer edition (14.04). It worked perfectly, wifi was good etc. But after turning on my device this Monday my computer wasn't able to make a connection anymore with a wifi device. In the top bar "no network devices available" is displayed while "enable networking" is checked.
I know it's a common problem, but the solutions given for related questions never work out for me, since my connection is totally gone. How am I able to update drivers etc without internet? Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I was having the same problem after using Software Updater. As Pilot6 mentioned, you can disable Secure Boot which will allow the updated modules to run. You should understand the security implications of doing so.



Since this is a Dell, press F12 on boot, then select Other Options > BIOS Setup. Secure Boot > Disable
