Hi...
I could be wrong but I don't think the server versions come with wireless drivers/firmware by default. You could try installing
Ubuntu MATE if you want to try a more lightweight version of Ubuntu. Or you can try Lubuntu or Xubuntu as well.
However, if you would like to keep what you have, you can try using another computer to download the .deb packages that contain the utilities and then transferring them to the one in question using a USB thumb drive. rfkill can be found
here. lshw is
here. You will also need pciutils, which can be found
here. You also might need to install any needed dependencies. You should be able to double click on the packages to install them.
If you need further help after you get these installed, please open a terminal and post the results of these commands...
Code:
lspci -nnk | grep -i net -A2
Code:
sudo lshw -C network
This will help us determine the brand and Device ID your adapter.
Disclaimer: Be careful with commands including "sudo" especially, as it will essentially allow root access to your system. Mistakes could possibly damage or even destroy your OS.
Regards...
