Your WLAN is soft blocked, as you can see.
Why didn't you unblock it? WLAN is this device 1 - phy0
When I do that nothing changes. And wimax I cannot unblock at all. Dont know if its an integral part of a wifi. There might be a bug. I use iwlwifi driver btw. Now it works perfectly in linux mint tho?

Soft blocking is a kernel thing. I never did figure out why it happens. It seemed random at some point in one kernel version and then went away after that. What happens if you just try to unblock everything? "rfkill unblock all"?

What should  change?  Did you Activate the interface? Did you used networkmanager / conman for scaning ssid and connect?
Did you read wiki or installation manual or your wait for automatic connection of WiFi?

Nothing happens still can't see any WIFI network. It unblocks everything but wimax.

allium I'll try again. I tried most of these anyway. See those big blocks of code under iwlwifi? I tried them all. The thing is, in ip link, wlan0 is always down. No matter what I do I cannot make it up.

So btw isn't networkmanager working with systemd? Could there be any problems with that in future?
I liked connman tho. I still wanna fix the connman problem. I tried many connmans codes but it just doesnt list any wifi.

Reading all the answers from devs, administrators and all the people that should provide knowledge regarding this issue that 95% of new Artix users have, i`m kinda dissapointed.

Question for devs : Why in the God blue sky you add something like connman that soft blocks the wifi? Looks like is a awful piece of shit wifi tool.
Question for Artix veterans that provided a irrelevant answer to this thread: why you din`t tell the poor guy from the begining to remove connman from laptop so he can have wifi?
I struggled 2 days on all the websites, just so i can find the corect answer from a guy who put Artix for the first time.

If you like Arch-based systems but don't want to spend time to do your home work, try Manjaro. I am pretty sure your wifi will  work out of box. Artix is a beauty, but it's not for everyone.
This is not the answer.

So the solution, the simpliest solution is to remove that crappy connman and after reboot, what do you know...it works.

But an answer that you read here very often.
For my feeling too often.
It is often simply assumed that the questioner has not yet tried to find solutions himself. Many probably do not understand that not everyone understands everything the same and the familiarization is very extensive.

Sometimes it feels like being in an exclusive club, where you are allowed to enter, but actually only if you belong to the elite and know almost everything already. So admission only for advanced students, otherwise better stay outside?

The same behavior can be found in the Arch forum.
From many other distri forums I don't know this "RTFM", read the Wiki or "let me google that for you" behavior.
And then you often don't even get a link to the wiki article.
This is a pity if you are interested in Artix.

Here, as a beginner, it is best not to ask at all, or only very difficult questions?

With this feedback I have certainly screwed it up getting help here

EDIT: First I made, is to deinstall conman an installes networkmanager. And now I have Problems with shutdown times (35 Sek.) because nm do not stop.
But this Problem (start-stop-daemon, pidfiles?) I do not aks here, because I don't want to read, "look in the wiki". I am nearly afraid to ask here in this Forum.

@ht: You are necrobumping a year old thread, and your post is unrelated. Why not create a separate thread instead?

No, it is assumed, not only on this forum, but on the Internet in general, that the poster first does its research. It is called common decency. First do a web search for your problem. If that doesn't help, then look at the threads on Artix forum, if still no results, look at the wikis and program documentation/FAQ. Anything else is flooding the forum with questions which are already answered elsewhere. I'm surprised by the willingness to devote much more energy to typing the problem out in a post, instead of typing the keywords in the search engine and reading. It just wastes time and energy of everyone involved.

This thread sums up the expectations on this forum:

https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,1923.0.html

It is not wrong to ask, it is wrong to ask already answered questions without reading the documentation.

@topic: I never had any problems with connman, even as a "beginner to Artix". I read the man pages, though.
