I have the wireless option but it is not picking up any WiFi networks. So far I have tried
followed by as was suggested on another forum site.

https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...ux-4175434970/

I found them with this search:

mint linux how to get broadcom wireless working

If you have further problems, please state as clearly as possible what the problem is. Your first post deesn't show what model of WIFI adapter is not working. This is basic info we need to help. We can not see your machine, so you have to tell us what you have done, and what problems you have.

Hope this helps.

Install missing drivers

1.3.1. Installing drivers is usually not necessary, because they are already present in the Linux kernel. Exceptions are some printer drivers and proprietary restricted drivers for (among others) Nvidia graphics cards.

a. Install your printer and scanner in this way (*Click*).

b. For optimal performance of your Nvidia video card, or your Broadcom wireless chipset, you'll want to install the closed source restricted driver (the proprietary driver). Like this:

Menu - Administration - Driver Manager

When available for your system, this tool will present you with one or more installable non-free drivers. Select them all, but only after creating a snapshot with Timeshift first.

The required drivers are then automatically downloaded from the internet, from the software repositories of Mint, and (also automatically) installed. Afterwards you'll have to do a full reboot of your computer.
