Hi guys,

I tried out the solution on https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi and selected the iwlwifi-7265-ucode-16.242414.0 However the wifi still does not work.

My kernel is version 4.8

Running iw wlp3s0 scan displays a scan list of the available wireless networks.

Running wpa_cli says "Could not connect to wpa_supplicant: (nil) - re-trying"

Running dmesg | grep wlp3s0 says:

[ 17.881103] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0 wlp3s0: renamed from wlan0

[ 42.951550] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlp3s0: link is not ready

[42788.022751] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlp3s0: link is not ready

Running dmesg | grep iwlwifi says:

I also noticed that although wpa_supplicant is running, the iwlwifi interface is not UP.

 

Please help
