So then, I have to type the following and yes the wifi-5000-Ucode file is already on the Arch CD under /lib/firmware: rmmod iwlagn modprobe iwlagn And only after typing this does the itnerface finally show up to ifconfig and other such tools.
There is only one way to get a clue about what's going on: Provide us with the dmesg output. This might seem difficult from the CD, but actually isn't: Once you made your wireless work and are online, enter the following command: dmesg | curl -F "content=<-" npaste.de If everything succeeds, it will return a URL which will contain your pasted dmesg output. The URL is very short, it will just be http://npaste.de/ followed by two more characters, thus it will be easy to remember or write down.
