I am writing this from my Android so it will be hard for me to duplicate code.
My T-Mobile router stopped working for about a day; since then, everything else has worked, including family smart devices, our phones, and family Windows PCs. But even when I connect with a LAN cable, now my laptop won't work. I tried to connect to the WiFi with nmcli, but I got the "secrets" message described on the
ArchWiki. Going into the
Code:
journalctl -u NetworkManager
logs, there was so much I wasn't able to figure out what was going wrong. /etc/systemd/resolved.conf file was more managable; I saw it was paralell to this output:
Code:
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/N
etworkManager.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=262562[CODE]vendor preset: disabled)dor preset: disabled[\CODE] message identical, but I don't know what to modify to fix it.
EDIT: I solved the problem, using the instructions
here. For anyone else's reference, my terminal input/output is as follows:
Code:
