Re: [PLUG] WiFi issues on Ubuntu after installing Nordvpn

This looks like a package failed to install. What happens when you run "sudo apt -f install". This will force install of packages that may have failed by getting the dependencies.

I have been running memtest86 on the system for over 12 hours now and it tells me it has passed the test 5 times with zero errors and it’s still running.

As for the VPN install, I followed the instructions listed below:

Get the fastest VPN for Linux (set up in minutes)

Get the fastest VPN for Linux (set up in minutes)

A VPN app for Linux encrypts your connection and increases your privacy. Use it with Ubuntu, Fedora, Kali, and many others — it’s very easy to set up and use.

What kind of install do they have? An OpenVPN config file? A tarfile?
A self-extracting executable?
