The wireless mouse no longer works, changed the battery in the mouse, and then noticed the wireless networking stopped working as well. It's an Acer V3-551G that I just use to surf the net.

not sure, but I'd off pulled the little usb thing waited a minute, then reinstall to see if that did the trick first...

I'm not sure this is related to linux. Maybe check if airplane mode is on. I'm sure it has a Fn key, which you hold while pressing the F# keys (they probably have color coded icons on them).

I think it's a hardware issue. I guess I'm going to learn about laptop innards now.

Definitely a hardware issue. Ethernet port is fried as well.

It was the Ubuntu 15.1 upgrade, it killed the drivers for all the ports.
