elementaryos-5.1-stable.20200204 - No wifi after system update #262
Description
The system doesn't allow you to connect to wifi and there's no wifi icon at all. This happened after installing the system update from the App centre in elementaryos-5.1-stable.20200204. Everything was working fine before I installed the system update and that was the only update I installed. I also tried installing the latest version (at the time) elementaryos-5.1-stable.20200405 from scratch and it doesn't even prompt me to connect to the wifi during installation. After installation completed there was no wifi icon in the notification area.
This is on Lenovo ideapad c340

Did you also install a WiFi driver listed in AppCenter?

So I tried upgrading with and without installing the driver. Installing the driver on its own did not break the wifi but upgrading the system did (with and without the network driver installed).
