RTNETLINK answers: Operation not permitted

[Olli]

use ‘sudo’ in front and activate it with sudo permission

[Erik]

Done

[Olli]

Works ?

[Erik]

no - i added the network connection in the networ settings - is there a way to search for available Networks such as in a wifi menue or via Terminal?
Sorry for the delay in reply but the systems sometimes freezes and i have to restart

[Olli]

is there a hardware switch or a hotkey at the keyboard to switch on/off wifi ? this could trouble

[Erik]

thats not the case

[Olli]

sudo modprobe ssb

any changes ? propably redo afterwards

sudo ip link set wlp2s0 up
