TP link wifi drivers problem

10 September 2021, 15:22:13

Hello!
I have been trying to install Artix on desktop.
Artix can detect my network via TP link 7200 ND.
It can connect.
But when I connect, there is no internet.
Wifi adapter is working, checked on Ubuntu.
Thank you.

please provide info on
- what you installed exactly
- which commands you ran for configuring
- what output you get and the status of the interface

Tried with openrc-base install.

ip link set wlan0 up

connected
---- No internet, ping is not working, no any otput.

Is this one of those two installations?

This uses a Ralink RT3070 chipset and the RT2800USB kernel driver, you can check it's using that with lspci -vvv. You can install the linux-firmware package, perhaps the firmware would help if you didn't have it?

There is one problem. I can't download anything. I don't have internet acess.
I suppose that linux-firmware is part of Artix - open-rc ISO ?

But you somehow post on the forum.
Boot a linux installation which has internet access and then chroot into your problematic artix installation.

Or go to your favorite /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist URL, download the package file, transfer by USB or something and install with pacman -U
It's also possible to set up internet forwarding by connecting 2 computers via ethernet and doing some cli config, but it took me hours to figure out how to get that working myself when I first did it (it might be easier with a GUI manager but who knows.)
