Hello,
I am coming from openSUSE. Qubes OS is still very new to me and I am willing to learn.
One problem I am currently facing is WiFi authentication. Here is what happens:
- I plug the USB wireless adapter (TP-Link, using rtl8188eu driver).
- I attach that device to sys-usb
- I set up the wifi conecion in nm-applet the same way as on my openSUSE laptop, using the exact same wifi password (I use my phone as a wifi hotspot)
- I click the connection to connect
What happens is:
The connection gets instantly disconnected on every attempt. This practically denies any attempt to connect to the Internet. The only workaround I have found is not to use wifi password at all (which of course is not desired as it is insecure). Only then I was able to connect and update the system. Unfortunately, even after update and reboot the problem remains.
Using the exact same USB wireless adapter on openSUSE works just fine - password is accepted. Of course, I checked many times, even with a very simple password, so, I am 100% sure that the password is typed correctly.
I tried to use another USB wifi adapter (which also works fine on openSUSE) but that one won’t even attempt to connect (more errors are seen in journal).
So, I am hoping to get some help here.
