Wifi suddenly stopped working
Hello everyone, I am a very new user in debian and so far my experience using it has been a blast! until.. suddenly my wifi just stopped working. I am using the gnome desktop environment and usually the wifi icon is there but now it's gone. I have no idea what i did and what happened because there was no error, glitch or anything that I am aware of at the time. Now i am connecting my laptop to my wifi router via ethernet in hope of finding a solution. Thank you so much in advance.

Re: Wifi suddenly stopped working
Hello, Does your computer have a airplane mode? For example, on mine, "Fn + F6" will toggle airplane mode, turning off both WiFi and Bluetooth.

Re: Wifi suddenly stopped working
I apologize. I am using debian version 12. Here's the output of the command. Oh yeah, the wifi icon now appear again but it's not showing any wifi network (infinite loading).Aki wrote: ↑2023-08-20 08:13 Hello,

Re: Wifi suddenly stopped working
Okay. I've downloaded the debian live iso and booted on a live usb. Not surprisingly, it worked. I know it's not a hardware issue because it was working before. So, what's the next step?

Re: Wifi suddenly stopped working
The systemd journal. Use the `journalctl` command to read the entries or the gnome-logs package if you prefer a GUI.
