# How to Repair Ubuntu Network

While I was `sudo apt update`ing my Ubuntu Server, all of a sudden the internet decided to disconnect :). I rebooted; after that, the internet wouldn't connect at all. Even the LEDs next to the Ethernet port woudn't turn on as usual.
At first I thought the problem was from the hardware, the network card. but it turned out, it was because of the updating software failure. I thought of reinstalling the packages (drivers) that were related to network (`network-manager`, `ifupdown`). But how could I do it? I didn't have internet access to download and `sudo apt install` them.

It was a disaster.

I decided to try to manually install them. after many searches and time spending, here's what I did:

I wanted to download the packages from the Ubuntu mirror and install them via a USB stick.

When `sudo apt update`ing, Ubuntu writes the URLs it downloads the software from, based on the system requirments, the links showed me two keywords: `jammy` and `amd64`.
Based on those, Now:
1. Go to [packages.ubuntu.com](https://packages.ubuntu.com/)
2. Search for the package ypu need (`network-manager`)
3. Click on `jammy`
4. Go to the bottom of the page
5. Click on `amd64`
6. Download the package from ypur desired mirror



selected `jammy`, at the bottom of the page, clicked on [All packages](https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/allpackages), found the package I needed (`network-manager`)

These were the packages required for me:
* [ifupdown](https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/amd64/ifupdown/download)
