[Adminsysters] help with a network disaster on linux laptop

[Helen Varley Jamieson]

i fixed it! or it fixed itself ... i tried following a suggestion to get 
to the grub menu, by restarting with the shift key down. i did this, & 
it didn't bring me to the grub menu, but the laptop restarted with the 
internet working ... i have no idea what really fixed it! but i'm not 
going to try using a vpn again for a while ...
