Can't connect to wifi any more

ash-hashtag · 2023-07-31 07:30:31

I have a dual boot system with windows and arch linux.
\I'm on KDE Plasma - Xorg session.

There are no issues on windows, wifi works great.

Even on arch until today, did not do any updates in between, that could've broke it or something. It just couldn't connect to my new router(AP). (I did now update the system, hoping it fixes anything, but nothing changed)

It can still connect to the saved wifis but can't connect to new wifis, but yeah I deleted all the saved ones, thought maybe some cache related thing or something. Now I can't connect to anything.

but weirdly, when I removed Password from my mobile hotspot and tried to connect, it did connect. So maybe some password encryption related issue? Idk. So I removed password from the router too. but nope, it still can't connect.

It's weird that it can only connect to my passwordless mobile hotspot and nothing else.

Things I've tried
> Disabling kwallet
> Multiple Reboots
> rfkill softblocks
> Restarting NetworkManager

running

nmcli dev wifi connect <SSID>

just takes like 45seconds, and exits with

Error: Connection activation failed: IP configuration could not be reserved (no available address, timeout, etc.).

this is the journalctl during that 45 seconds

journalctl --following output:

dhcp times out, the router probably thinks you've a stale lease.

See the 3rd link below. Mandatory.
Disable it (it's NOT the BIOS setting!) and reboot windows and linux twice for voodo reasons.

I've Windows Fast start disabled from a long time, and made sure to check it again. So that shouldn't be the case. After a lot of resetting the router, with different configurations. The problem is something about Smart DHCP, I don't know why, all of my devices, including windows on this same device, is connecting with no issues. except for when booted in linux. But the thing is that is the default recommended option, so the router works, out of the box, and changing it atleast makes me connect even from linux. but I am not getting internet. I now have to figure it, how to properly make it work without this smart DHCP. and the weird thing, is once I try to connect this router, it is somehow messing up NetworkManager, and making it unable to connect it to any other routers too. simply restarting NetworkManager is not fixing it. rebooting entire OS makes it able to connect with all the other routers except this one.

wtf is "smart dhcp" (google comes up with various dumb ideas being marketed as smart by different idi… vendors)
Is there a repeater in the mix here?

changing it atleast makes me connect even from linux. but I am not getting internet.

Can we see a log for that as well as

ip a; ip r; ping -c1 _gateway; ping -c1 8.8.8.8

with this condition?
