[SOLVED]

I solved my problem! I installed NetworkManager. I have always tried to use it, but it is not connected to the wifi point. Now I understood why. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … se_install

# systemctl stop dhcpcd.service

Re: Can't connect to wifi [Solved]

Please use [ code ] tags for the output of commands.

Also, while I don't use netctl, I think anyone who does would need to know what is in the profile for wlp4s0 to be able to help, as that is where the problem is.

I'd recommend (for diagnostic purposes) not using netctl, but rather following the manual connection steps on the wireless page of the wiki in order to pinpoint where the problem is.

Re: Can't connect to wifi [Solved]

Hello furious, welcome to Arch...
Firstly, please use code tags when posting lines of code wink
Secondly, there is probably a conflict in your system between two (or more) different networking solutions --- please post the output of:

systemctl --no-pager

EDIT: d'oh!

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.

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

Re: Can't connect to wifi [Solved]

I solved my problem! I installed NetworkManager. I have always tried to use it, but it is not connected to the wifi point. Now I understood why. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … se_install

# systemctl stop dhcpcd.service

lol smile
