Public bug reported:
Installed a new graphics card on an Ubuntu Server machine. Suddenly
internet stopped working. Spent a couple hours talking to ChatGPT and
eventually tracked the issue down to the file:
/etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml
Which is where my wifi network and password were stored. This file
assumed the name of my wifi device would be wlp8s0 but the name had
changed to wlp9s0 due to installing the new graphics card.
