Any ideas why, when I’m on live session of a distro, the wifi works just fine, but when I I install it the wifi has a red X over connections? Specifically this happened with Nobara and the reason I’m running Pop!_OS. I’d would love a fix though in case I want to distro hop, but still be able to install it.
You must log in or register to comment.
from the liveUSB can do you a lspci and see what wifi card is installed?
I would guess they turn every option on for a liveUSB in the kernel but then only enable the largest vendors/options for the default install.
It would help to know what your wifi card is. Did you look in dmesg for any clues? You’re probably missing the firmware blobs.
It’s a usb wifi adapter Netgear model:A6210.
Doesn’t tell me much, Netgear uses a variety of chipsets
