########## wireless info END ############
negusp

This is an issue with newer HP Notebooks running newer Intel wireless cards. Blacklist "acer-wmi" and "acer-wireless" in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf.

Add the lines

blacklist acer-wmi

And reboot.

Ubuntu tries to load the acer-wmi and wireless module which erroneously blocks the wireless.

Edit: if the wireless card/firmware continues to fail, please run the command:

dmesg | grep iwl

And edit your question with the output.
