Hey everyone,

I've just gotten into Deepin 15.2 (not an upgrade) and can't seem to find any way to connect wifi. I've tried WangYaohua's recommendation from this post: https://bbs.deepin.org/post/31083

I only have options in "Network" for "Wired Network" and "System Proxy".

Running an Acer Aspire with Windows 10 and Deepin.

I'm new to Linux, so feel free to write to me like I'm a 5 year old.

Thanks,

Jason

I just wanted to update that it was a missing driver and the issue is fixed. I commented on the specific solution, but wanted to thank everyone for all the help. Everything is working great now! Seriously, thank you all! It's really great to know that there's such a great community around what seems like a great OS.
