Hi kaye,

so the answer to your first question above is

(as root)
# iw dev wlp3s0b1

or

$ sudo iw dev wlp3s0b1

Because wlp3s0b1 is the name given by your kernel to
your Broadcom Wireless Network Adapter. And this iw command
should be run with superuser privileges as David stated
above.

Similarly, enp7s0 is the name given by your kernel to your
Samsung PCIE Ethernet card.

Also, when showing command output to people trying to assist
you, don't ever omit the actual command that generated the
output. Because it is a crucial aspect of the information sharing
process.
