No internet connection - - how to reinstall network drivers on Bionic?
I did something bad to my internet drivers (trying to install/make Bluetooth work) and now have no connection.
Have tried v arious published fixes but so far no positive results.
Any help much appreciated!

Please reboot. Using the Shift key, interrupt the boot process to get to the GRUB menu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2
Select Advanced Options and scroll down to the earlier kernel version, 4.15.0-42-generic. Press Enter to boot it.
Once you are booted into -42, I suspect that your networking will now work. If so, we'll reinstall -43:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --reinstall linux-image-4.15.0-43-generic
sudo apt install --reinstall linux-modules-4.15.0-43-generic
After all is completed, reboot and -43 should now also be working.
EDIT: In our chat, we found that the ethernet driver you installed was r8168-dkms. The driver either is not signed ar not signed properly to satisfy Secure Boot. After you disabled Secure Boot in the BIOS/EFI, the driver loaded correctly and the ethernet is working.
We also found that the wireless driver was blacklisted. We removed the blacklist, flipped the Airplane Mode switch and now the wireless is also working.
changed boot order with grub customizer (as system working) and rebooted, now with cable connection, reinstalled -43 and now just about to reboot into that - will let you know how it all works out. Meanwhile, many thanks, you were such a great help after hours of dead ends. btw, I really like chilis and grow them in my garden. - - last word, any chance we can see about installing bluetooth...? ;-) thanks again - G :>=

ok - that didn't work. Newly installed -43 comes up without ethernet or wifi...

changed boot order with grub customizer (as system working) and rebooted, now with cable connection, reinstalled -43 and now just about to reboot into that - will let you know how it all works out. Meanwhile, many thanks, you were such a great help after hours of dead ends. btw, I really like chilis and grow them in my garden. - - last word, any chance we can see about installing bluetooth...? ;-) thanks again - G :>=

sudo lshw -C network still shows as unclaimed - see below for readout - after doing these two tests the "airplane mode" icon was on, but there was no way to change the hardware switch...
