I am having a serious issue for a while now, and I haven't been able to fix it, I can't find a proper solution. I am using a Raspberry PI 4 with Ubuntu Server 20.04 and installed ubuntu desktop. Right now I have Wifi access, but when I try to connect to another wifi network it says "Wifi Unavailable" and the Visible Networks panel loads indefinitely without finding any network. Also, when I choose the select network option it says "No networks"
The first time a installed the OS I set the necessary configuration in /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml
network:
renderer: networkd
ethernets:
eth0:
dhcp4: true
optional: true
version: 2
wifis:
wlan0:
dhcp4: true
dhcp6: true
optional: true
access-points:
"home network":
password: "password"
Then, I used these commands:
sudo netplan apply
sudo reboot
It seemed everything was fine, right now I have wifi access and can ping without any issues at all. The problem is that some commands show me that the wlan0 device is not working. When I use:
journalctl -e | grep NetworkManager
I get:
<error> [1632057111.4048] sup-iface[0xaaaae2bf5cd0,wlan0]: error adding interface: wpa_supplicant couldn't grab this interface.
<info> [1632057121.3969] device (wlan0): supplicant interface state: starting -> down
<info> [1632057121.3971] device (wlan0): supplicant interface keeps failing, giving up
Also If I use:
nmcli d
I get:
wlan0 wifi unavailable
If I try to create a hotspot for the raspberry it says that wlan0 is unavailable, but I don't understand that since I am already connected and have wifi access!
Any ideas of what I can do?
EDIT 1:
I tried changing the renderer to NetworkManager but this didn't work either.
