The package provides the installation files for Intel WiFi Link 5100 AGN Driver version 13.1.1.1. In order to manually update your driver, follow the steps below (the next steps).

in order to try to fix Spotify (native) (couldn't start it), but I've since learned that update does not actually update any packages (correct me if I'm wrong). But if was after the reboot (Ubuntu wanted me to reboot) that my WiFi no longer works.
If I type https://ninjunkies.netlify.app/d-link-ant24-0600-drivers-for-mac.html.
This is the output:
So my WiFi adapter is unclaimed, which I've read means that no driver is associated with it.

This is the link that I wanted to use to try to install iwlwifi
Dfi lanparty nf4 sli dr driver for mac. (I first wanted to try a Linux driver instead of the whole Windows wireless Driver thing. Plus when I tried to find the driver for this adapter, I could only find .exe
files, while it said that I should find .inf
files).
Running this

Notice the iwlwifi-5000-5.ucode
. This looks very similar to the file(s) that I downloaded from the previous website that I showed. So since it is already there, I haven't tried to install it to that directory yet (and I'm not quite certain how to do it). Maybe the kernel/system/whatever simply doesn't load the driver on boot-up?
Most of the problems I've had with Ubuntu so far have been solved with copy pasting terminal commands without knowing what they do, but it feels like the more I do this the more brittle the whole system becomes (because I don't know what I'm doing). It seems that installing and updating software can lead to unforeseen, bad side-effects that I don't have the skill to foresee. So for this problem I want to ask someone directly before I proceed.
Thanks!

The driver for your card, iwlwifi, is already present in the 12.04 kernel, as is the required firmware. Let's load it and see if your wireless springs to life:
Did a wireless interface wlan0 get created? If not, check the message logs to troubleshoot:

The solution that worked for me is that I upgraded the Kernel to 4.2.042 and rebooted. I had problem with ethernet as well as wifi. This one upgrade solved both the issues without installing any additional packages.

These kernel packages are upward compatible with ubuntu server 12.04 to ubuntu 16.04.

Your problem looks similar to mine, and I think the new kernel and broadcom drivers are the problem. I ran this, restarted, and it fixed it:
If that does not work then you can look at these two links for some other ideas:
