Maybe you accidentally enabled 'airplane mode'?

This sounds very weird.
If you run Linux from a live USB stick - does network connectivity work?
Did you somehow disable the networking devices in the BIOS?

Linux Mint by default installs some drivers for NIC's and GPU's. Are you sure your windows installation had required drivers? I doubt Windows would carry hundreds of drivers for all the available hardware out there. :wink:
What wifi card do you have? If you still have linux installed run "lspci | grep -i net" in terminal and show us.
Chances are you have too manually install driver for this card.

Install libreboot now!
