WiFi quit working

[Ed_P]

See what the output of nmcli device show and nmcli connection show show.

[Jack]

I type nmtui and here is the output.



It show that SpectrumSetup-E2 is there.



It show that SpectrumSetup-E2 is not in the list. It like it hiding.



I wish I knew what wrong with my WiFi.

If I didn't like Porteus Mate I wouldn't be here. With all Linux out for download Slackware (Portwus) is the best.

Did you scroll down the list?? It looks like there is more than one page.

And did you:

Interesting. No "nmcli device show" or "nmcli connection show".

Also interesting, wlan0: disconnected. I assume the Realtek Wi Fi is your pc's wifi adapter?

Indeed.

That list seems to be for networks available to be activated and since -E2 is already active it's not there.

I wish I knew what wrong with my WiFi.

So is your concern that the -E2 network isn't in the nmtui window or that you can't connect to Porteus with your Porteus browser?

[Jack]

Ed posted this That list seems to be for networks available to be activated and since -E2 is already active it's not there.

In that picture is the activated screen since it no there you can't activated the network.

[Jack]

I just found all my USB thumb drives and I found 1 to test.

Well I just check Nemesis and it acting the same way as Porteus. I check last time Nemesis was use on the network and it was 9 month ago. I hope it work so I could use it for the day Porteus work again but no luck.

So for now I will have to use Windows 7 pro.

Good luck Ed and all the other member.

When the Internet was working for you Jack did you have to Activate -E2 each time you booted Porteus?

Can you post the output of: "ls -lgh /var/lib/Net*" and "ls -lgh /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/".

Another thought, call Spectrum and ask if their Setup service has access limitations on you. Only allowed for Windows? Only allowed for one system per account? etc. Or it could be a router problem, have you checked it's settings? Have you had any power outages in the past2-3 weeks?

[Jack]

Question to 1 yes it part of the network name so it always going the same.

Here is the output.

Only allowed for one system per account? I can check.

etc. Or it could be a router problem, have you checked it's settings? If this why iphone mac book pro tv and Windows working they share my network.

Have you had any power outages in the past2-3 weeks? No

If it is set to Auto connect and you save changes it should connect automatically each boot. Mine does.

Here is the output.

Not ls -lgh /var/lib/Net*. You missed the asterisk.

Well at this point I don't think this is a technical Linux problem. More likely a setting or conflicting app problem.

Can you post the output of these commands?

uname -a

cat /etc/porteus/*

ls -l /mnt/live/memory/images | awk '{if ($1 != "total") print $9,":",$6,$7,$8}'

cat /proc/cmdline

I will all that when I get up. I thought I was going to die tonight so I had use my oxygen to give me a pickup. Only one lung now it take a lot out of me.

I like the bigger thing you want me to do so I can them better now. I broke my glass so I have to wait tell VA gets a another made.

I like all your help your give me, you don't when I lost Porteus I almost gave up on computer all together because I hate Microsoft they made any money from me since Aug 2013 and they never will.

For the Porteus forum my browser's Zoom is set to 125% and sometimes higher. A rather small font used here. imho
