[SOLVED] NetworkManager not working (no connection)

Apparently I can not even use my wired connection, not to speak about wireless not listing all access points available.

Jul  6 17:38:04 arch dhcpcd[2258]: sending commands to master dhcpcd process
Jul  6 17:38:04 arch dhcpcd[178]: control command: /usr/bin/dhcpcd -B -K -L -G -c /usr/lib/networkmanager/nm-dhcp-client.action enp6s7
Jul  6 17:38:06 arch dhcpcd[178]: enp6s7: removing IP address 192.168.0.100/24

How can I fix it?

I did follow the Wiki and disabled all network services before I started NetworkManager.

Re: [SOLVED] NetworkManager not working (no connection)

Anyone? I've checked both Network Manager and Network Configuration Wiki pages, but they didn't seem to help. Everything works out-of-the-box, but as soon as Network Manager is involved, NOTHING works.

Re: [SOLVED] NetworkManager not working (no connection)

I don't think that lack of response is due to people not knowing potential solutions.  The issue is your total lack of any real detail in your question.  Your network is broken... and apparently you use network manager.  I can tell that your interface is being recognized, but unless you give more information and hopefully can tell of some debugging that you might have tried to do, I don't think you will get any real response.  With how the post is now, maybe you'll get luck with someone wanting to play 20 questions...

Re: [SOLVED] NetworkManager not working (no connection)

WonderWoofy expressed my sentiments exactly.  I woke up this morning, read your post, and was able to divine exactly -zero- about what was your problem.  I thought it was a lack of coffee, so I rectified that.  On my return there was no improvement in my comprehension, so, I moved on.  On these forums, a complete lack of response is guaranteed to mean that you need to go back do more research and provide us with additional information. 

We state in our policy that thread bumps are not appropriate on these forums -- unless more information is provided. You may also want to check the link in my signature.

In your case, please tell us:

What kernel and architecture are you running? (What is the output of uname -a )
What is your network hardware? (What is the output of lspci -nn )
What services are running? (What is the output of systemctl )
What are your device names, and what are their states?  (What are the outputs of ip link and of ip addr )
What user space tool are you using to control NetworkManager?
Are you controlling it as root, or as a user?  Are you using sudo?
Are you using a Desktop Environment? (Gnome? KDE?)  Those fully integrated environments sometimes try to "Help" you.
Why did you take that excerpt from the log?  What happened to cause those log entries?

LOAD   = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
SUB    = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.

78 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.
To show all installed unit files use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.

I'm using network-manager-applet (nmapplet) and running it as a regular user. Tried to sudo, but except loosing some of the "styling" nothing changed.

No desktop environemt - I'm using Openbox.

As per the excerpt from my logs - I was just searching for *something* related to the problem. That was the only thing I was able to find. Those lines were generated by clicking on the nmapplet icon and choosing Wired network connection, which dropped in just a few seconds.

EDIT: installing dhclient fixed everything.
