    [SOLVED] Network manager won't connect my WLAN

    Moin,
    I've been a KDE neon user for many years. So far I've always done dist-upgrades. That didn't work anymore, so I had to reinstall (yammy) and copy back my backup of the home directory. That worked quite well, but there are minor problems.

    First: wifi won't connect to my wifi. I see different WLANs in the list and can connect to a public non-encrypted WLAN. But not to my own encyptet WLAN (not sure if the encryption is the problem). I see "configuring interface" for a split second, but after that the "nver userd" info. Content in my /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/beaujolais.nmconnection:


    Code:
    [connection]
    id=beaujolais
    uuid=fb5d94a1-401a-40b2-b939-34065d990d1e
    type=wifi
    
    [wifi]
    mode=infrastructure
    ssid=beaujolais
    
    [wifi-security]
    key-mgmt=wpa-psk
    psk=****************************************
    
    [ipv4]
    method=auto
    
    [ipv6]
    addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy
    method=auto
    
    [proxy]
    journalctl -u NetworkManager.service

    How can I debug this? Any hint? is there a classic mistake I can make?

    Have you tried simply creating a new wifi configuration through NetworkManager?
    Using Kubuntu Linux since March 23, 2007

      Does "wpa-psk" match the encryption type of your WLAN router?

      And are you absolutely sure that there is no writing error in the "psk" string?

        Thanks for the answers. Installing linux-firmware.deb did the trick.
