It's funny what I read. I read I should take off, remove accu and electric line and then press on/off for 10 seconds. Plug all in and it should work.
Crazy? But it work. Now goes Wlan again. Maybe it's I used wired and that's why not work?

Silvio, Using wired during setup makes no difference. After setup, you need to know what type of encryption/authentication your wireless access point uses and follow the appropriate part of the wireless setup wiki. Specifically, you need to first confirm your driver: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_network_configuration#Check_th... Then go through the manual setup, step-by-step. Note: on my laptop the device name was 'wlo1' which is different from what you normally see. I suspect your device will have a similar name. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_network_configuration#Manual_s... This will identify exactly what part of the configuration is giving you problems. After you have it working manually, the simplest way to setup your wifi (in my opinion) is using netctl. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_network_configuration#netctl For wpa_supplicant, (if using wpa psk encryption) simply set the wpa_passphrase. To do so, save the original wpa_supplicant.conf (it is a good reference for all configs) and re-create the file with wpa_passphrase, e.g. # mv /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf.orig # wpa_passphrase "Your ESSID" "your_password" >> /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf Then just add the needed general configuration to the top of the file before the 'network { ... } block created by wpa_passphrase, e.g.: update_config=1 ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant eapol_version=1 ap_scan=1 fast_reauth=1 network={ ... existing stuff from wpa_passphrase } To finish your netctl setup, just create your setup-file in /etc/netctl by copying your ESSID and Key to the appropriate fields. I do it slightly different from the wiki. I don't like the multiple includes of the various different configs, so I put it all on one file. Copy the ESSID and Key information from your wpa_supplicant.conf e.g. Interface=wlo1 Connection=wireless Security=wpa IP=dhcp ESSID='Your_ESSID' ## Note: the '\' before the psk Key='\your_psk' Priority=10 Description='Whatever you want' Security=wpa-config WPAConfigFile='/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf' Adjust as needed for your hardware. Save your netctl interface config in /etc/netctl under any 'config_name' you like, then start and enable the netctl service for your config, e.g. # netctl start config_name # netctl enable config_name That is all that was required on my elitebook. Going though the manual config steps will verify each step of the setup. Once you have it working, creating the automatic start config is straight forward. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
