HP Notebook - 15-bs145tu Wifi Driver Installation on Ubuntu Linux 14.04

[sridhardeava]

I have purchased HP Notebook - 15-bs145tu on 24-Apr-2018 through Amazon and installed Ubuntu 14.04 linux.

I tried to enable Wifi using below command but wifi is not working, please let me know the procedure to enable Wifi on Ubuntu 14.04 Linux OS.

sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source

I actually purchased HP Notebook - 15-bs145tu on 24-Apr-2018 so my product warrant should be 1 year from 24-Apr-2018 but in HP customer support portal am seeing product warrant is only 10 months as below, please have a look at this Issue as well.

Hi

The BIOS F1 should show a Born On date, this is the normal start date of your warranty.

If you do forum Search there are recent replies about your WiFi issue by me et al.

Later versions, like 17:10 , do a very good job of Automatically installing a wireless adapter.

Maker of adapter please.

As per your advise yesterday I had installed Ubuntu 17.10 Linux OS, still I could not see WIFI is enabled. you can have a look at the error messge in wifi screen in attachment, please have a look and provide me the solution.

also I could not see Bluetooth is enabled.

Hi

Your pictures take many hours to be approved.  In the meantime

I asked for the maker and suggested a search.

Copy and paste the script below into a text editor and save it with a meaningful name like cf4.scr and then run it in a terminal something like this ./cf4.scr

You may need to 

sudo chmod 755 cf4.scr

as and when needed.

@Sridhar

Please call customer support and provide them with your BIOS screenshot and your purchase invoice and they will update your warray to full year.

I did the same.

You can also pay some amont around 5500 and get the warranty exted to 3 years.

Were you able to resolve the issue? I have the exact smae issue with my HP 15-bs145tu that purchased a week ago. The broadcom drivers don't seem to help. Looks like there are no working drivers for Realtek Device d723 (this is the Wireless Adapter in my PC) for Ubuntu.

Hi, I was also facing same issue, I just google and get following link for stack overflow. Following those commands issue for me get resolved

Also adding same description, incase link unavailable

To install the module for the RTL8723DE chipset, first determine your kernel using uname -r if your kernel is lower than 4.11, do

sudo apt-get install build-essential dkms git
git clone -b 4.10-down https://github.com/jeremyb31/rtl8723de.git
sudo dkms add ./rtl8723de
sudo dkms install rtl8723de/5.1.1.8_21285.20171026_COEX20170111-1414

Then reboot

If you have kernel 4.11 and newer do

sudo apt-get install build-essential dkms git
git clone https://github.com/jeremyb31/rtl8723de.git
sudo dkms add ./rtl8723de
sudo dkms install rtl8723de/5.1.1.8_21285.20171026_COEX20170111-1414
