I am a complete noob when it comes to anything besides installing programs in arch but i’ve installed manjaro yesterday right before i went to sleep but today i tried using WiFi instead of Ethernet for my main pc as i need ethernet for my secondary pc(that works just fine) too but i only have 1 ethernet connection and at first i could see wifi networks but when i tried accessing mine it would repeatedly ask me for the password. after a little research i came across someone saying that typing sudo nano /etc/conf.d/wireless-regdom and uncommenting my country code or something and restart my pc, after which my wifi was just gone entirely even after undoing it and restarting again. And now im stuck on ethernet. btw please ignore my bad english
General system info would be beneficial:
inxi -Fazy
What would really provide insight is a log copy of the time in between you attempting to connect - and it failing.
run:
journalctl -f
in a terminal
then try to connect and wait until it fails
post all the output that appeared in the terminal in the mean time
It will contain clues as to why the connection failed to be established.
well inxi -Fazy outputs

Oh, and I found an Arch thread that mentioned patches … but it is from months ago …
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=286981
And lastly theres also this possibly related AUR package.
