Re: [SOLVED]I can't connect to internet

Please use [ code ] rather than [ quote ] tags for pasting/writing down command outputs.

How have you tried to connect? You did not yet specify how exactly you tried to connect and which error messages you see. Also if possible it would be better to upload actual outputs instead of typing them down (there are a lot of errors and potentially missing information just in what you posted), by using another usb stick or so to write text files to if you have no other possibility of getting online from that specific machine.

In general you might want to try the wl driver instead: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Broadcom_wireless (the driver should be available on the recent ISO, you don't have to specifically install something else, rmmod and modprobing the wl driver should work,but if it does work you do have to remember to install it into the actual system)

We've had a lot of people setting wireless interfaces up manually. Where did you find this nonsense?

Re: [SOLVED]I can't connect to internet

First thing i do is :

 # ip link set wlan0 up 

and take this

 [83.007412] brcmsmac bcma0:1: brcms_ops_bss_info_changed: qos enabled: false
[83.007505] brcmsmac bcma0:1: brcms_ops_config: change power-save mode: false

after that i use wifi-menu

and

 ping google.gr 
ping: google.gr: Temporary failure in name resolution 

I dont know what i do wrong and i dont have internet

For checking the driver, ok, but we've had a lot of people recently that are doing it when trying to connect.

So, kouman, WHY are you doing that before using wifi-menu?

Re: [SOLVED]I can't connect to internet

After you ran wifi-menu , please post the outputs of

$ ip address show
$ ip route
$ ip -6 route
$ ping 138.201.81.199
$ ping 2a01:4f8:172:1d86::1

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky
