[SOLVED] Mageia 4; no more wifi

[linuxero]

Hi;

Confirmed on two machines, a laptop with Broadcom card and a desktop with Realtek one. On the first; Mageia cannot even list the available networks although the proprietary driver has been installed. On the latter; networks are shown, MGA Net-Applet says that I am connected and turns to green, but I cannot navigate! Nameservers set properly, apparently routes are as well..

Any clue?

Thanks

Please don't post screenshots, but the text output.

And for diagnosis, please first ping the IP of your router, and then some other IP, like 8.8.8.8.

Code: Select all

lspcidrake -v | grep -i net
ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep -ie net -e wpa

Thanks dok.

The problem was that the option to let networkmanager control the interface was set to automatic. I changed it to no and now I am connected.

Thanks again and I'll remember your advice
