Any way not to have to log into network on restart when using a live image? [closed]
I am not network savvy but each time I power the laptop with Ubuntu running from a flash drive or disk I need to manually connect to my network. Any way to have it auto-connect please?

Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! You need to edit the question to add more details. To start, have you installed Ubuntu or are you running a live image? What version? What sort of network is it -- Wifi, VPN, LAN, mobile? Have you already checked if the network settings have an auto-connect setting?

Sorry. Running a live image, I have created a bootable usb with ubuntu. I cannot install Ubuntu because the HDD has failed. Version is 16.04.3 Wifi network. I don't see an auto-connect in settings.

OK - live image - that's probably the root of the problem. Did you enable persistence while making it? Please edit the question to add details.

I can't remember seeing an option titled "persistence" when creating the usb. I simply followed the instructions from this resource: tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/…

Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! The best way to add additional information to your question is by editing it, with the edit button. It is better visible that way, and comments are mainly for secondary, temporary purposes. Comments are removed under a variety of circumstances. Anything important to your question should be in the question itself.

Since you're using a live image without persistence (per comments), there is no way to do this. A live image forgets all settings as soon as you turn it off.
You could look into making a persistent live image (which Rufus doesn't support) or even a full install on the flash drive.
