Anyone got Wifi working with WPA2?

#1

I tried running wpa_supplicant after generating the /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf but it keep saying the key is wrong. I double checked with my current wifi setup it seems to be correct. Is there any specific flag I need to use for wlan0? My current wifi is on WPA2-personal . When I setup for other stuff usually I only need the ssid and password so not sure what I am missing here.

Yeah that is so odd… if possible can you show me your full wpa_supplican call syntax? I am not doubting someone can do it but I just don’t understand why it doesn’t work for me…

any btw it is a model 4B before anyone asking if it is a model B v1.3 I can see that on the MB

I don’t use WPA but Network manager (nmtui-connect “SSID” + password is all I do) … which is even less resilient for troubles.

The same as mine.
