Mageia forum

Hello,

After I reinstalled Mageia 6 and tried to update (there was a lot of mistakes), suddenly wifi driver disappeared.
may I ask some help how I can reinstall the drivers?

You should at the very least provide some actual details. What updates were there, and what "lot of mistakes" ? Also you don't even mention which driver you were using, or what wireless chipset (vendor & product ID) you are using ...

Please provide the output of the following commands:

Code: Select all: lspcidrake -v | grep -iE "wlan|wifi|wireless|net" ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep -iE "net|wpa" rpm -qa --last|head -50

and, as root:

Code: Select all: ifconfig -a rfkill list all systemctl status network.service -al journalctl -ab | grep -iE "fw|firmware|iwl|wifi|wire|80211"

Code: Select all: [evaldas@localhost ~]$ lspcidrake -v | grep -iE "wlan|wifi|wireless|net" r8169 : Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.|RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller [NETWORK_ETHERNET] (vendor:10ec device:8168 subv:103c subd:18ea) (rev: 0c) wl : Broadcom Limited|BCM43228 802.11a/b/g/n [NETWORK_OTHER] (vendor:14e4 device:4359 subv:14e4 subd:05e2)

Ok, because in order to post response to your requests i needed to plug in cable, I made an update and it installed wifi driver.
So my advise is after installation to made first updates via cable

I reinstalled once again and have the same problem - wifi is not working because it is soft blocked. When I do

Code: Select all: rfkill unblock all

wifi is up again. How to solve this problem? wifi driver is iwlwifi
