I need an Ubuntu expert

Job ID: 33202653

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

Dell i5 desktops will connect to network with Windows but when replaced with Ubuntu it will not establish any network connection. Behaving as thought network adapter is disabled in bios but I don't know how to change that setting. All networking options (except for VPN) are greyed out in Network control panel. This will take someone that knows what they are doing 10 minutes on the phone with me.
