Lost Wifi Device After Update/reboot
After updating and rebooting my laptop, I seem to have lost my wifi device. Since it still is physically intact (everything works when I boot a live system from USB) I have the suspicion that something went wrong on the CentOS side. Also, ,my password prompt after booting (system is encrypted) now appears to see an US keyboard layout, instead of the German layout it should have, so it seems like there is indeed something wrong/changed with my system.
Apparently there used to be some issues with older versions where the system simply forgot the “NetworkManager-wifi ” package, but according to “rpm -q” I still have that.
“rfkill list” does not list my wifi card, whereas “lspci | grep Network” seems OK: “04:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 7265 (rev 59)”
So, is it “simply” an issue with with CentOS, or did I do something wrong without realizing it?
One thought on - Lost Wifi Device After Update/reboot
Have the same problem in CentOs 7, after “yum update” wifi is lost. I can see wifi networks even, just when I click on one I see only “No agents were available for this request”. wifi crashed during update, and as it is tablet without ethernet connection reinstall is probable solution. May be problem with KDE – seems unstable and pretty inconvenient desktop – no working on-screen keyboard, no terminal accessible by keyboard only and now wifi gone. Under Gnome Wifi worked even after update 3 days ago.
