Ubuntu 16.04 with Ubuntu Mate is it possible?

[Jude DaShiell]

If you did that in a user account you won't have access.  This is a root 
operation.  You'll also have to have a graphical user interface up in 
root for that to work.  Another possibility as root in graphical user 
interface is to hit alt-f1 then downarrow to system then rightarrow into 
that menu.  There should be an admin menu in system so rightarrow into 
admin then downarrow onto no network is connected then hit enter. 
You'll get a list of networks Ubuntu found so downarrow to your network 
then rightarrow onto the add network button and hit enter.  You'll get 
prompted for a password so enter that, then rightarrow onto connect and 
hit enter.  If I remember all of the mapping of ubuntu I shared with you 
here in this message correctly you should get connected.
