ISETUP:
I plugged my laptop (Ubuntu 14) to my RPi 3 (Raspbian Stretch) via ssh
over an Ethernet cable.
PROBLEM:
Doing nmcli dev wifi
on the laptop gives me a whole bunch of networks. Typing the same command on the R Pi gives me no network at all. I have tried ifconfig
, all the interfaces (eth0
, lo
, wlan1
) appear as expected. I have tried to switch them off and on to no avail.
ATTEMPTS:
I also tried :
- Edimax dongle (named
wlan0
): no network detected by that interface either. systemctl restart network-manager
- restart the interfaces (
ifconfig wlan1 down
)
But neither of this attempt was successfulto no avail.
Curiously, iwlist wlan0 scan
does return all the networks I am after.
GOAL:
My goal is to nmcli dev wifi connect
to my network (I don't want to use wpa_supplicant
)
How to solve this please?
