 Posted: Tue Mar 22, 2022 3:21 pm Post subject: Networkmanager shows not all Wifi Networks [solved] |
 |
|
| Code: | After last update of the nm-applet from 1.22 to 1.24 i can't connect to my wlan router, because i dont see the ESSID.
this
# iwlist wlan0 scan
shows my ESSID
but this
# nmcli device wifi list
doesn't list my ESSID but all the other ESSID i'm not using
I don't think the nm-applet is the problem. I emerged only the nm-applet to the new version on an other laptop, and there is no problem.
I don't know what the problem is an how to solve it. |
[/code]

Maybe its hidden.
Just create a connection to your network in nm-applet.
Does it connect?

Plz try to manually connect
Maybe first stop NM.
Then
| Code: |
iwlist wlan0 scan
iwconfig wlan0 essid <name> key <password>
|
does it work?

This doesn't work.
Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.
iwconfig key works only for WEP but the encryption of the wifi network ist WPA |

Then please restart NM and issue
| Code: |
nmcli radio wifi on
nmcli con down <essid>
nmcli dev wifi connect <essid> password "password"
|
and look at the logs also for insight.

No network with SSID "myessid" was found.
Its a little bit strange that i can see all wifi networks except my own.
I was searching the files in /etc which contains "myessid".
But i found nothing. |

| If you are using net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-2.10-r1 and was it built with -tkip USE flag, then build it with the tkip USE flag. |
