I have the Sony VAIO Duo 13 with Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04 Dual-Booted. I cannot get the internal wifi chip to work with Ubuntu. The internal chip works with Windows 10. I have tried many solutions including this one: Sony Vaio Pro Duo 13 SDIO Broadcom BCM43241 Not Recognized
I can use a usb adapter for WIFI (not desirable) so I can download anything needed if needed for a solution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Dear Sabrina, Would you mind updating the question by placing the result of the following commandlspci | grep Network
as well? I want to know whether is a broadcom wi-fi card. Furthermore, search on dash for the keyworddrivers
and select External Drivers as well, then provide a screenshot of this program as well (by editing the question and placing the comment bellow to get notified).

I'm confused by:sudo echo "blacklist sony_laptop" >> sudo /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
that seems to tell the kernel to ignore your laptop. Could you explain why you are doing this?

I messed up there and put the wrong code that was supposed to be the grep where I was looking for those. I replaced that in my question with the contents of my blacklist file

I messed up there and put the wrong code that was supposed to be the grep where I was looking for those. I replaced that in my question with the contents of my blacklist file

Dear Sabrina, Would you mind updating the question by placing the result of the following command
lspci | grep Network
as well? I want to know whether is a broadcom wi-fi card. Furthermore, search on dash for the keyword drivers
and select External Drivers as well, then provide a screenshot of this program as well (by editing the question and placing the comment bellow to get notified).– Dimitrios Desyllas

I'm confused by:
sudo echo "blacklist sony_laptop" >> sudo /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
that seems to tell the kernel to ignore your laptop. Could you explain why you are doing this?– WinEunuuchs2Unix
