[SOLVED]Trying to connect to my wifi network after my arch install

pa_leca · 2018-07-30 02:34:50

Hi, I've migrated from debian and after installing arch on my desktop I can't connect to my wifi network, I got the following error after trying to connect using wifi-menu in the "journalctl -xe" and I don't know what should I do...
P.s.: I got dialog and wpa_supplicant are already installed.

1. Read the Code of Conduct and only post thumbnails http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cod … s_and_code and don't post screenshots of text, paste the actual text.

2. Connect manually; following the steps on the wiki page methodically and report any error messages in full here.

1. Sorry for that, I was a little tired and I've posted without thinking...

2. OK! I'll do it again and report asap.

Your screenshot shows NetworkManager.
Your post says wifi-menu.
These are two different things. Do not use both at the same time.
When run manually, wifi-menu needs root permissions.

I was following the wiki page about Wireless network configuration: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wi … ice_driver;
I'm using a USB device, so I run

 dmesg | grep usbcore

and get a expected output:

 usbcore: registered new interface driver r8188eu

.
Then I checked

 ip link

and I got

 wlp0s19f2u5

as my wireless interface; I set it up using:

 ip link set wlp0s19f2u5 up

I got no error messages...

When I check the kernel messages for firmware

 dmesg | grep firmware

I got:

[   6.224010] platform regulatory.0: Direct firmware load for regulatory.db failed with error -2

Then I used:

 dmesg | grep wlp0s19f2u5

and I got this as a result:

 [   6.526759] r8188eu 2-5:51.0 wlp0s19f2u5: renamed from wlan0  [   10.354432] IPv6 ADDRCONF (NETDEV_UP): wlp0s19f2u5: link is not ready

I don't know how to proceed.

note: my device worked fine while I was installing arch, but after the install, it doesn't work.

I'm logged as root.

According to wiki the UP in

<NO-CARRIER, BROADCAST, MULTICAST, UP>

indicates that my interface is up.

So, keep going. Don't expect me to keep telling you this... If a step succeeds, move on to the next one.

pa_leca · 2018-07-30 19:58:16

Side note: when I run wifi-menu, I got the following output before choosing my wifi:

locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory

locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale:No such file or directory

locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale:No such file or directory

 Scanning for networks... ioctl[SIOCSIWAP]: Operation not permitted

 ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Invalid argument

and this error message after:

Job for netctl@wlp0s19f2u5\x2[i]MyWifiName[/i].service failed because the control process exited with error code.

then it tells me to check "journalctl -xe".

I can't, because I don't have iw in my machine.

Fix your locale https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/In … calization

Edit: iw is in core (Hint: I am telling you to install it. It might be easiest to reboot from the install media)
Edit 2: Not to be confused with base.

One issue that I had is that the interface needs to be down for wifi-menu to work. Try setting it down, and see if that works.

I set up my locale, and I've installed iw.
Now following the wiki, when I use

 iw dev wlp0s19f2u5 link

I got: Not Connected as output.

When I run

 iw dev wlp0s19f2u5 scan

I got the following massage:

 command failed: No such device (-19)

What is the output of ip link ?

Does iw list provide you with a lot of data about your interface?

I receive no output lol

Sounds like we may be missing the firmware for your device. What type of device is your wireless? (use the lspci command)
What is the output of pacman -Qs firmware

-- or --

Your running kernel does not match the installed kernel.
Verify that uname -a and pacman -Q linux both report the same version.

My device is a USB.
pacman's output:

Firmware files for Linux

uname -a and pacman -Q linux have the same version, namely 4.17.10-1

What is the output of dmesg?

Sorry, I thought that what type of device wasn't that important.

That is a Realtek chipset. It did not work during the installation, did it?

I think you are going to need the rtl8188eu-git driver from the AUR. If that does not work, try the other things in the AUR that contain 8188eu
