Can't connect wifi internet.

I'm having trouble to access internet throught wifi. So, the thing is wifi-menu finds the network name defined in the router settings, but when I press Enter I get the following error message:

Job for netctl@wlp3s0\x2dNET\x2dRSP.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status "netctl@wlp3s0\\x2dNET\\x2dRSP.service"" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

Here the output of "systemctl status "netctl@wlp3s0\\x2dNET\\x2dRSP.service"":

[rob@archrob ~]$ systemctl status "netctl@wlp3s0\\x2dNET\\x2dRSP.service"

The output of "journalctl -xe" is too big, thousands of lines thats why I didn't post here.

Tried too:

[rob@archrob ~]$ sudo ip link set wlp3s0 down
[rob@archrob ~]$ sudo netctl start wlp3s0-NET-RSP
Job for netctl@wlp3s0\x2dNET\x2dRSP.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status "netctl@wlp3s0\\x2dNET\\x2dRSP.service"" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

I tried access the router menu using Firefox and Chromium:

Unable to connect

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at 192.168.0.1.

    The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
    If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
    If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

The output of Chromium:

No internet
Try:

Here ifconfig:

Don't know if is useful for you but the output of "ipconfig" using Windows:

   How can I fix that?

Re: Can't connect wifi internet.

Please use "code" tags, not "quote" tags.
Also see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Du … t_Start-Up

The interface seems to be activated when you attempt to wifi-menu on it, output of

systemctl list-unit-files --state=enabled

?

Re: Can't connect wifi internet.

Disable the NetworkManager & dhcpcd services, they are conflicting with netctl.

Or disable dhcpcd.service and use NetworkManager instead of netctl.

I tried that:

systemctl disable dhcpcd.service
systemctl disable NetworkManager.service

Then i tried "netctl start wlp3s0-net-rsp" but I've got the same problem.

Re: Can't connect wifi internet.

Disable all network-related services and connect manually.

Re: Can't connect wifi internet.

Merely disabling the service w/o a reboot does not stop it…

Re: Can't connect wifi internet.

Thank!

Now is kind of working. The thing is I type:

[rob@archrob ~]$ systemctl list-unit-files --state=enabled
UNIT FILE        STATE  
autovt@.service  enabled
getty@.service   enabled
remote-fs.target enabled

3 unit files listed.

Now everytime I restart the system I have to type "wifi-menu" and choose my network.

That's covered in the wiki.
