Operating System: Linux

Brand new HP laptop with fresh Ubuntu 16.04 installation doesn't show WIFI adapter at all on Ubuntu 16.04. I have tried all driver combinations.

 

When I run <sudo lshw -C network> the output is:

After looking for answers, looks lik "*-network UNCLAIMED" means that there is no driver for that network hardware.

Please advice how to fix WIFI on Ubuntu 16.04
