Posted: Mon May 12, 2025 3:15 am
i installed Senpai Respin MX-LxQt , and after intalling wifi is not working
iwconfig shows this
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11 ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated
Retry short limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
i had previously had Senpai Respin MX-LxQt , installed only and wifi was working fine
i changed lot of setting and other stuff and after that system became very slow
since i dont know much about linux , i thought f installing new linux is the best way to go but wifi not working after fresh install
