How to Connect a Ubuntu Server System to a Wi-Fi Network

In this video, I show you how to connect a system running Ubuntu Server to a Wi-Fi network. Links: Ubuntu Packages: packages.ubuntu.com/ Commands: chmod 777 -R [path to directory] (example: chmod 777 -R /media/drew/writable): Recursively changes the permissions of a directory to make it writable. mount [path to storage volume] [mount point] (example: mount /dev/sda3 /mnt): Mounts a storage volume to the specified mount point. umount [path to storage volume] (example: umount /dev/sda3): Unmounts a storage volume (sorry for not mentioning that in this video). cd [path to directory] (example: cd /etc/netplan): Changes the active directory in the shell. ls: Lists the contents of the active directory. dpkg -i *: Installs all packages in the active directory. rm [path to file] (example: rm 50-cloud-init.yaml.dist-subiquity): Permanently deletes a file. nano [path to file] (example: nano 00-installer-config.yaml): Allows you to edit a plain text file. netplan generate: Generates the network configuration for your Ubuntu server based on your Netplan configuration file, and checks for errors in your Netplan configuration file in the process. netplan apply: Applies your network configuration. *If you get a "permission denied" error when attempting to run any of the above commands, just add "sudo" to the beginning of the command (like this: sudo dpkg -i *), and try again. Sample Netplan Configuration File: network: version: 2 wifis: wlp1s0: dhcp4: no addresses: [192.168.0.101/24] nameservers: addresses: [1.1.1.1, 1.0.0.1] access-points: 'Network Name': password: 'Wi-Fi Password' routes: - to: default via: 192.168.0.1
