Problem with wireless connection in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Ever since I upgraded my OS to Bionic Beaver, my wireless connections(both WiFi and bluetooth) are not working properly. Most of the time, they don't get connected to a network/device. Even when they do, the connection is intermittent. I have had this problem for a while now and and posted in several forums but in vain.
In addition, whenever I say Install now to a software update prompt, I get the following error message, even though my wired connection is working perfectly fine over the browser.

I use a HP15-bs179tx laptop.

It might be in BIOS/system config/boot options, Load HP factory keys

@Jeremy31: Do you mean that I should factory restore my computer? Can you please elaborate? I don't know what factory keys are. And googling it didn't help either.

Loading the HP factory keys in BIOS is not restoring your entire computer, just the factory Secure Boot keys, dkms doesn't work well without them
