And this laptop doesn't have hole for a cable... RE: wifi not available during install - leszek - 18th October 2017 So your device is there as wlo1 device but simply turned off. Can you turn it on with Code: sudo ifconfig wlo1 up RE: wifi not available during install - MarkoF - 18th October 2017 (18th October 2017, 18:51)leszek Wrote: So your device is there as wlo1 device but simply turned off. Can you turn it on with Nope. Not working. I also restarted networking and network-manager. The wifi-list stays empty. RE: wifi not available during install - leszek - 18th October 2017 Ok if you still want to install it without internet access try editing /etc/calamares/modules/welcome.conf and remove internet from required. Nevertheless even after installing you need a newer kernel I suppose. So you need some kind of USB Ethernet adapters or another computer to download the newer kernel packages.

So no possibilty to get wifi working on this versions live-usb? Any beta for 17.07? RE: wifi not available during install - leszek - 18th October 2017 So the issue is that actually the firmware package (linux-firmware) does not ship with the firmware for your wifi card. So what you need to do is to download the firmware for your card somehow from here: https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/_media/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi-7265-ucode-16.242414.0.tgz and then extract and put the two files .ucode files to the /lib/firmware/ directory. (skip the license and readmes) That should make the wifi card working for you.

Actually, I've tried that, but it didn't do anything. I've gave up for now and installed KDE Neon. Thanks for all suggestions. Appreciate it! RE: wifi not available during install - Mark Spruce - 1st November 2017 I have an interesting thing as well. When I install Maui, if I uncheck the wireless connection, so the install see's no network connection. I get no errors. When the installation is finished. I cant access the internet at all. Just thought I would add this onto this conversation. I can ping my router etc... But no surfing. But if on the install I have the internet connected of course I am fine Mark RE: wifi not available during install - leszek - 1st November 2017 sounds like the dns is not configured correctly. |
