"wifi not working" on HP ENVY x360 - 15-w107ne

Just a standard wifi-not-working question. A fresh Ubuntu 16.04 and is up to date. Laptop model number in title.

I used the "Wireless info script" in the accepted answer here and there's the result:

TIA :)

Solution 1:

Run in terminal

sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-acer-wmi.conf <<< "blacklist acer_wmi"

and reboot.

This solution is helpful for laptop models when the rfkill shows acer-wireless and it is blocked.
