Long time I have been trying configure wireless interface -
I read many Gentoo's Handbook, WIKI etc, however, at the moment quite lost -
Do not understand what I am doing and what suppose to do...
In general, Gentoo's documentations are of high level: Accurate and updated, but concerning Network/Wireless -
(https://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/ ... t=4&chap=4) -Wireless networking on Linux is usually pretty straightforward.
it is not so - at least, according my experience and some others, as may see in this Forum -
Maybe it is due to many approaches, methods, achieving the same result.
If someone would make some order - welcomed
My requirements are quite simple:
Static IP, WEP, open, one password.
Priority to Wired connection - If no wired, then automatically WIFI connection.
At the moment, my configuration is with DHCP - If there is another way, configuring STATIC IP with /etc/conf.d/net, please let me know.
Seems every thing is OK - I can connect with WPA_GUI and assign the right IP,
However, can not connect to Internet, no ping.
Do I need symbolic link to wlp3s0?
wpa_supplicant should be in runlevel?
Here is /etc/conf.d/net:
