In addition, what security protocol are you using? If the access point is set up for WPA, you need to configure and run the wpa_supplicant service, which is supposed to do the appropriate key negotiation with the access point, before the dhcp server gives you info about your IP, gateway etc. NetworkManager uses the wpa_supplicant internally and transparently. The old network service scripts do not. So if you are not using NM, then you need to configure it manually and enable it via systemctl, so that it runs as a daemon and steps in when necessary. man wpa_supplicant man wpa_supplicant.conf man wpa_cli HTH, :-) Marko -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
