Another Wifi issue [SOLVED]

Hi guys I'm having some wifi issues. My connection previously worked with a broadcom wifi card but the connection continuously dropped out so I switched to a intel one.

The issue I'm having is that every time I try to connect it reports that my password is wrong. It isn't! I've retyped it a dozen times and tried on multiple other devices.

I'm using the ASUS PCE-AC55BT network card.

I can't copy and paste as I'm login in on a different machine so you'll have to bare with me.

$ uname -r
4.15.2-2-ARCH

$ sudo wifi-menu
shows a dozen available networks. I select the one I want, type the password and get a "CONNECTING FAILED" message.
Note: I'm currently getting some "p2p-dev-wlps0: failed to initialise driver interface " messages but I have made them disappear in the past and it still didn't connect.

$ cat /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
network={
    ssid="name"
    psk="password"
    #psk=4134b324....
}

$ sudo wpa_suplicant -iwlp2s0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
I have tried using both psk in plain text and the one generated from wpa_passphrase.
The connection fails at:
wlp2s0: WPA: 4-Way Handshake failed - preshared key must be incorrect
wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-SSID-TEMP-DISABLED .... reason=WRONG_KEY

$ nmtui
Tried connecting to available network. It just repeatably tries to connect and keeps asking for a password.

$ lspci -k | grep -A 3 Network
Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 8260 (rev 3a)
  Subsystem: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 8260
  Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
  Kernel modules: iwlwifi

I have also tried connect to the hotspot on my phone and I get the same error

I have the following daemons running:
- wpa_supplicant.service
- NetworkManager.service
- polkit.service
- dhcpcd.service
I'm not sure which others to look might be causing conflict. Are there any other usual suspects?

Any help would be much appreciated (Before I lose all my hair) !!

Thanks. Mitch

Re: Another Wifi issue [SOLVED]

I'm pretty sure dhcpcd and NetworkManager should not both be running at the same time.  Make sure you have no other network services like netctl enabled.

Re: Another Wifi issue [SOLVED]

I tried disabling it and unfortunately it's still failing.

Re: Another Wifi issue [SOLVED]

1. Please use code tags when pasting to the boards: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … s_and_code

2. Paste the output of `systemctl list-unit-files --state=enabled`

3. For the enabled service, paste the output of `systemctl status XXXX.service` and from that output, use the pid to paste `journalctl _PID=XXXX`.

Re: Another Wifi issue [SOLVED]

Just to clarify.
I didn't disable the dhcpcd service above. I stopped the service.

$ systemctl stop dhcpcd

Re: Another Wifi issue [SOLVED]

Disable it. Then reboot. And the PID (process ID), from that journal, is 563.

Re: Another Wifi issue [SOLVED]

NM is still running, plays a bit on the interface, figures it's used elsewere and drops off.
=> First of all, get all automatic network daemons (dhcpcd, NM, wpa_supplicant services) out of the way to allow a clean manual connection.
Did you try the pre-generated PSK (instead of the passphrase)?
Next: do you control that AP? Ie. can you change the password to "12345"?

Re: Another Wifi issue [SOLVED]

Thanks for the info!  What is the best methods for manual connection. The methods I have tried they fail if NM or wpa_supplicate services are not running.

In the past I have tried the pre-generated PSK but I will try it again.

Cheers

Re: Another Wifi issue [SOLVED]

I don't know what happened but it seems to be working now!

Thanks for your help!

I had to stop:
- sshd
- NetworkManager
- wpa_supplicant

then wpa_supplicant starting connecting.
