 Posted: Fri Jun 11, 2021 8:51 am Post subject: How to assign an ip adress to wlan0 |
 |
|
When i boot up, only wired interface is loading properly and an ip is only to it assigned.
For wlan0 to work i have to:
1. run sudo wpa_supplicant -B -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -i wlan0
2. delete /var/run/wpa_supplicant/wlan0
3. run sudo wpa_supplicant -B -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -i wlan0 again
4. run dhcpcd wlan0 for it to assign an ip adress
how can i do this more easily or automatically?
also why do i get this "warning":
| Code: | $ sudo wpa_supplicant -B -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -i wlan0
Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant

In
/etc/conf.d/net
| Code: |
#####WIRELESS
#modules="wpa_supplicant"
#config_wlan0="192.168.2.4/24"
#routes_wlan0="default via 192.168.2.1"
#dns_servers_wlan0="192.168.2.1"
####OR
#config_wlan0="dhcp"
|
In wpa_suppicant.conf you need of cource to set your esssid and password etc.

If he uses dhcpcd, there is no need for any of that |

Right click on the NM icon in panel, edit the connection, set an IP address and other network parameters (probably on the IPV4 tab).
