I upgraded my Arch install last night with:
pacman -Syu
Today my wifi script doesn't connect to my router so I can access the Internet.
ip link set wlan0 up
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
iwconfig
dhcpcd wlan0
ping -c 3 www.yahoo.com
I keep getting a timeout errors.
If dhcpcd was upgraded I missed seeing it as changing. How do I get my Wifi functional again?
Is anyone else having problems?
Thanks.

It might be helpful to know at least what packages did you upgrade.

karol,
As I previously stated I just did a:
pacman -Syu
and my system updated. My Wifi didn't work all day yesterday, (from Arch ONLY) but today it works again.
I use the same wifi.sh script as root to enable my wifi.
So, I haven't a clue as to what was going on as I could boot my same Asus Laptop in Debian 6 and it worked
fine with my Wifi connection.

Saying you did pacman -Syu doesn't give any information. If you do that every day, then probably only a couple packages were updraded. If you only 'Syu' on a monthly basis you probably had to update everything.
In either case your pacman log will show what was updated. If you are sure it was due to an update, you could narrow down the list of suspects.
Do you get timeout errors at the endpoint of that script (from ping), do you get any other errors if you run each step manually?

I had it happen again on my second USB Flash Drive I was making for my brother. It appears that I am getting locked out
of my Router with a "NO CARRIER" and "TIMEOUT ERROR" according to the -d switch I added to dhcpcd wlan0.
This time I wasn't able to connect to my Router until I rebooted it. That might have been the case for the previous
times, but I'm not 100% sure as it seems to only happen at random.....and I can't associate it with something I am doing.
Thanks for the help.

/dev/zero,
It just happened again. I was lucky enough to get some good information for you to look over.
I just rebooted into Debian 6 "Squeeze" and my Wifi is fully functional when it quit under Arch.

So, I'm a bit confused. The first post gave me the impression that you can't connect at all; but it seems like you're saying the problem is actually intermittent?
When your pings to external IP addresses fail, can you still ping the router?
Offline
I don't see anything related in your pacman.log, it's quite possible that it's just a coincidence. However, this smells:

Double check your /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf, or even post its contents (without the password of course).
Running arch is like raising a puppy - if you spend a bit of time with it each day and do just a bit of training you'll end up with the most loyal partner you could want; if you lock it in a room and don't check on if for several days, it'll tear apart your stuff and poop everywhere.

/dev/zero,
The first time it happened, I did the upgrade after several days of playing with Arch. I had finished setting up my XFCE
Desktop and I had installed lots of software.
Then I updated my system from a Terminal and shut down. The next day I tried booting my USB Flash Drive to get online
but it failed. I got the same NO CARRIER and TIMEOUT Errors.
The next day everything worked as it had previously. So I posted about my problem. When my Wifi didn't work on Arch
I could boot my same Laptop in Debian 6 and everything worked perfect.
Days later it happened again, but this time Debian wouldn't connect, so I had to reboot my router.
I haven't tried to ping my router when the External IP address's fail.
All I did a few minutes ago was to execute:
ip link set wlan0 down
ip link set wlan0 up
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
iwconfig
dhcpcd -d wlan0
ping -c 3 www.yahoo.com
and it happened that I could no longer connect, just like after my pacman -Syu command.
Sorry, to be confusing you.
THANKS.
Larry

/dev/zero,
AH, I think you found it.
I copied the wpa_supplicant.conf file to wpa_supplicant.orig, then did the:
wpa_passphrase myqwest6658 "my_secret_passkey" > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
and it created a new file versus editing the original /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
Here is what I have in my file wpa_supplicant.conf:
network={
ssid="myqwest6658"
#psk="my_secret_passkey"
psk=32677ff197a612434567938762cf123456789aad734986cba6b33ea30a16f7
}
So, that appears to be the problem.
I guess the blanket instructions on Page #2 of the Arch_Linux_Setup are a bit misleading.
Now I'll have to cruise through the original file and make the appropriate edits.
THANKS.
Larry

Here: you forgot to run dhcpcd. You don't need to run iwconfig every time, but you do need to use dhcpcd after you use wpa_supplicant.
Also, are you really running all these commands as root? That's a bad habit. I mean, do what you want with your own machine, but I really suggest you get used to avoiding root as much as possible and just use sudo exactly when necessary.

Forgive me here, but why not just use wicd or another network manager?
At one point, I found myself using wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd (first of all directly, then in scripts, then in a daemon), because Wicd had a bug. At least, I found a bug report with the same symptoms as I was getting. As for network manager, I abandoned it years ago and haven't looked back. I don't run gnome and when I did, network manager kept giving me problems until I switched to wicd.
I'm back on wicd now, but there is something to be said for the simple elegance of the command-line approach ...

/dev/zero,
I did run dhcpcd as my history shows. I just missed posting it previously.
378 cat ./wifi.sh
379 ip link set wlan0 down
380 ip link set wlan0 up
381 wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
382 iwconfig
383 dhcpcd -d wlan0
384 ping -c 3 www.yahoo.com
I do have a question as to what my actual wpa_supplicant should contain. Should it have
my information contained in the original file, or is mine correct as previously posted.
As for all the root commands, I'll change to using sudo after I get past this problem,
and change my script.
THANKS.

So, at this point I am in the same position as I was when I started. Nothing definite has been found and I've
duplicated the problem.
I'll ping the router next time I lose my Wifi connection.
Ideas? Suggestions?
Thanks.

Also, are you really running all these commands as root? That's a bad habit. I mean, do what you want with your own machine, but I really suggest you get used to avoiding root as much as possible and just use sudo exactly when necessary.
This is somewhat controversial, is it not? sudo is safer if you configure it for a limited set of commands but in order to use it as a replacement for su to root, you have to allow all commands. At that point whether it is safer or not depends, as far as I can tell, on personal habits and the sorts of errors you are most likely to make.

If you want to troubleshoot wireless, run wpa_supplicant without the -B(ackground) switch to verify authentication works properly. You could try a static IP instead of dhcpd (although I don't think that is the problem). Next, ping your router to see if you successfully connected to the LAN. Ping an IP (e.g. 8.8.8.8) to check for DNS problems. If so, try with e.g. google's name servers. Last but not least verify your router has a connection to the internet.
If the error is still unspecific, see if downgrading the kernel helps, as it includes the ath9k drivers and you might have hit some bug with the upgrade. If the problem happens only sporadic, it might not directly show after a kernel upgrade (or you updated the kernel before the 26th, but did not reboot until then).

Well, this is getting off topic now - and as with any matter pertaining to risk management, there's a lot of grey area. Still, if we're in the business of promoting Linux best practice, then let's at least agree that it's good to avoid suing to root if you can help it. If you have ideas on what other kinds of best practices can be implemented to avoid also abusing sudo privileges, I'd love to read about them in another thread.

[2012-02-23 00:56] ATTENTION UDEV:
[2012-02-23 00:56] ----------
[2012-02-23 00:56] We now use upstream rules for assigning devices to the 'disk', 'optical',
[2012-02-23 00:56] 'scanner' and 'video' groups. Beware of any changes.
[2012-02-23 00:56] --
[2012-02-23 00:56] We no longer create symlinks from /dev/<dev> to /dev/<dev>0.
[2012-02-23 00:56] --
[2012-02-23 00:56] For security reasons, we no longer add devices to the 'storage' group. Use
[2012-02-23 00:56] udisks and friends, or add custom rules to /etc/udev.d/rules/, if you want
[2012-02-23 00:56] this functionality back.
[2012-02-23 00:56] --
[2012-02-23 00:56] We no longer create the static nodes on install needed for an initrd-less boot
[2012-02-23 00:56] where devtmpfs is not mounted by the kernel, this only affects fresh installs.
[2012-02-23 00:56] --
[2012-02-23 00:56] devtmpfs support is now a hard requirement. Users of the official Arch kernels
[2012-02-23 00:56] have this enabled.
[2012-02-23 00:56] --
[2012-02-23 00:56] udev-compat has been removed, and should be uninstalled.
[2012-02-23 00:56] --
[2012-02-23 00:56] Framebuffers are no longer blacklisted by default.
[2012-02-23 00:56] --
[2012-02-23 00:56] binaries moved from /sbin to /usr/bin

I updated on the 26th, then powered down. My problem showed up the first time on powerup on the 27th. And I posted on the 28th,
after trying single commands and my script. Then on the 29th everything seemed to function properly again.
My Router has always had a DSL connection to the Internet because my Wife's Gateway Laptop running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS works perfectly.
Next time it happens, if it does I'll check further.
Thanks.
Larry
