Moreover, never ever give access to your system to an unknown person.
Even if he looks nice and helpful. It is a sane best practice to keep
away from troubles.

Keshara, as a person who is willing to help, you should even not have
asked for it. There are many ways to help him without a shell access.

Payo, if stuff here looks difficult for you, you would better be patient and wait for a kernel update from Ubuntu.
Or just change of hardware (WiFi card). Due to this trouble and several more, I personally ended switching my lame HP laptop for a Thinkpad (S540). Now everything works flawlessly and out of the box.
