WiFi not working on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Lenovo Legion Y520

Solution 1:

The device is blocked by a platform ideapad driver. Run in a terminal

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

and reboot.

And also I recommend to remove the Broadcom driver that you installed.

sudo apt purge bcmwl-kernel-source
