 |
|
Every time my networking service restarts, my wireless lan becomes soft blocked:
| Code: | # rfkill list
0: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no |
Why is this happening? Shouldn't netifrc be smart enough to unblock my wireless when starting and restarting the service? I don't have anything unusual or special in my /etc/conf.d/net:
| Code: | | config_wlp3s0="dhcp" |

| Hello there. It would help if you posted a bit more information. Do you have wpa_supplicant as well as a network manager? For example I use wpa_supplicant + Wicd. Wicd is added to the default runlevel and there for I deleted my network interfaces from the default runlevel. Because of this none of my interfaces are soft blocked. |

I do not have network manager, and I do have wpa_supplicant installed. My wpa_supplicant config file is also fairly basic:
| Code: | ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
update_config=1
network={
ssid=""
psk=""
} |
