Wifi issues with NetworkManager

Hello there.

Since I installed arch, I can only connect to one of the wifi I'm exposed to for an obscure reason. This one work flawlessly but no one else (even my second personnal WPA2 connection) does work with it.

I went through the wiki multiple times, but couldn't make it work with most of the additionnal packages and *.conf files. Here's the log of an unsuccessful connection : https://pastebin.com/1yTfmMth.

Thanks for reading.

Re: Wifi issues with NetworkManager

Which driver? Any conflicting services?

find /etc/systemd

, However it reads like an issue with NM's dhcp resolver, try: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … HCP_client

You should elaborate on which configurations you already tried unsuccessfully as that will prevent needless repetition.

Sorry for the late reply, I almost gave up on it.
There's no conflicting service, I even disabled dhcpcd.

I agree with you (thanks to ksyslog), but I can't configure it. I have the dhcp-client.conf but the dhclient.conf break all my connections (it doesn't work anymore). I tried to configure it manually but it didn't work (pretty sure it was an error in the addresses) and I don't understand how to configure the resolve.conf (not even sure it'll help).

For the dhclient.conf:

ip show link interface

give two adresses (one is ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) and both broke my connections. I ended up deleting it.
