 Posted: Mon Aug 05, 2024 6:06 pm Post subject: wLAN interface state DOWN |
 |
|
Hello  this is my second post on this forum. I managed to boot a distribution kernel and ınstall Gnome and everything is working... Well not that good but fine enough . The problem I have is that I can't get my wireless interface, which is renamed to wlo1 for some reason according to the kernel ring Buffer, to the UP state, and can't connect to my wLAN and the internet. Due to this I had to merge everything from my livecd boot which was pretty frustrating on its own right...  I tried:
| Code: |
ip link set wlo1 up
|
I also tried using wpa_supplicant, gnome's interface with no sucess...
My NIC drivers are loaded, dhcpcd and wpa_supplicant daemons are running too...
What is it that im missing?
I can see my network.
Please help me
Thanks in advance!

do not open another thread if you do not receive a reply within a very short time. Ask yourself why there was no reply. Possibly because you didn't reply in the last thread? (*1)
This is a friendly forum. All users who help do so in their spare time for free (=without salary). The only thing we get is a thank you - nothing else. But if there is not even a reply in a thread as to whether the problem has been solved, then this can have an effect on the willingness to help.
Also, your description is not suitable to help, as you give too little information about your system. We need at least a description of what you have installed (*2) and all 3 files mentioned here (also note the reference to wgetpaste): https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Overview_of_System_Information
If you have a manually configured kernel, then of course we also need the .config of it.

*2) An example of an installation log is: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/temp/delete_me |
Hello! I am sorry if I came as a douche for not replying in my last thread 
I just was too frustrated with my installation and didn't really have the time ... Also wasn't aware of the nature of this forum really sorry about that. I actually appreciate every single response just didn't think it would seem unnapreciative... I reposted this question again because I figured I didn't post it in the appropriate subforum... I will provide further information about my issue shortly

If you create a thread in an inappropriate subforum, you can report it at any time using the report button and ask for it to be moved.
In the meantime, you could also check the settings on your WLAN router. The most common reason why there is no WLAN connection, although everything is installed correctly, is that the WLAN router is still set to an old WPA TKIP, but the package net-wireless/wpa_supplicant was installed without the use-flag "tkip". There are two solutions here: The insecure solution is to reinstall wpa_supplicant with an activated use-flag "tkip"; the better solution is to set AES instead TKIP on the WLAN router.

It works! I remerged wpa_supplicant with the tkip use flag and it did work. I will consider upgrading my wifi security though thank you so much!
