Hi all, I’m trying to configure wireless on my Asus laptop running CentOS7. I see wlan0 when I type iw dev, but if I type ip link set wlan0 up I get the following error:
RTNETLINK answers: Operation not possible due to RF-kill

Any idea what is wrong??

  • your laptop has a switch to turn on/ turn off the wifi – and its currently turned off. this might be a real switch, or a key combination.

  • Check the NetworkManager radio settings as well nmcli r

    It’s possible to disable/enable wireless connectivity with that as well.
