Quick intro:
- I'm new at Linux, but i love to learn and research
- From one day to another wifi just stopped working
- It works fine in other devices
- I've been trying for 2 days and still nothing
Info:
- My operating system is Lubuntu 20.04 (not Ubuntu, but almost everything works just like Ubuntu)
- I'm on a laptop so I don't use ethernet
ping localhost works fine (so it's not a hardware problem)- Clicking the network doesn't do anything and all networks appear with an x mark.
ip link outputs the following:
3: wlp5s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
- Driver info:
- r8168
- RTL810xE PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller
- Driver is updated (Synaptic doesn't show any upgrade) and it's being used
Note: I'm not sure if this driver is for the wifi or for ethernet.
- I've restarted the networked manager in all the ways and nothing, rebooting the computer doesn't work neither
- Used
sudo ifup wlp5s0 and now shows UNKNOWN, but still nothing.
wlp5s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
temporarily
Here is the output of sudo journalctl -b 0 -u NetworkManager (I don't know if it's useful).
