... but it's correct and Windows is fine.

Have installed manjaro to SD card and all works well except the wifi.

No ethernet - any thoughts?

Found this code in dmesg:

Code:

Can anyone decipher it?

I've checked the Intel drivers - they look installed, except - the error is for a driver version that's not there, nor can I find it to load - the error ends in v.56, but that's not the one that's downloaded, nor is it already installed.

A few lines further down "cc-a0-55" is loaded no issue, because that's installed

There's no "cc-a0-56" available at Intel, either.

So any ideas?

then use windows to change it to something really simple, like abcde12345, or disable it, and then try again on Linux.

BTW, some random dmesg snippet, how is that going to help? Doesn't even contain any errors, fails, or warnings.

@ondoho - dmesg statements can be often be explained in the kernel docs, with a fix - I've been solving quite a few issues through it lately, especially with that big Dell I have, though the docs don't have everything

@ondoho - Thank you once again.

Went into wifi and changed password - actually I put the same password back - and it worked!.
very odd.

Been there, Done that.
A simple typo in the original entry causes problems. Resetting it fixes the issue.
