Hi, I don't know if this will work - first read this thread:

https://askubuntu.com/questions/693109/ ... ed-network

but download the last backport issued in 2016 (link below)

https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/lin ... 324.tar.gz

Then go back to the thread to follow the instructions there, modify them to reflect the above package - no guarantees! Also do so at your own risk!

;) :D
