Installed Ubuntu 18.04 LTS replacing Windows 10.



First time I ever use any non Windows or Apple operating system. Zero Ubuntu knowledge.



The computer is an Acer that uses Realtek Wireless.



No Wi Fi adapter is found.



Read some related answers and tried using commands posted for other similar questions. Not been able to find a solution.



Basically, how do I make Ubuntu 18.04 LTS find my Wi Fi adapter and connect to the internet?



Any helpful advice is greatly appreciated.
