Wifi unavailable Atheros QCA9565 / AR9565

[tsusanka]

I am not able to get my wifi up and running. The network applet says "Wifi is disabled" (or maybe "forbidden", the system's language is not in English unfortunately).

I am on Linux Mint 17 Qiana, Linux 3.16.0-34-generic. Comprehensive info about my system and network can be found on https://gist.github.com/tsusanka/807b31a866d788d6b60c.

The /usr/lib/linuxmint/mintWifi/mintWifi.py output is here https://gist.github.com/tsusanka/b379e3a52e5d36cd393a.

Lot of related topics said to try rfkill list all:

Code: Select all

0: ideapad_wlan: Wireless LAN
	Soft blocked: yes
	Hard blocked: no
1: ideapad_bluetooth: Bluetooth
	Soft blocked: no
	Hard blocked: no
2: phy0: Wireless LAN
	Soft blocked: yes
	Hard blocked: no
3: hci0: Bluetooth
	Soft blocked: no
	Hard blocked: no

which indeed says the wifi is blocked. After I run sudo rfkill unblock all the list changes to all "no"s, however nothing really happens and my network applet still says the same thing.

Thank you for your help.

Can you run the wireless script again after

Code: Select all

sudo rfkill unblock all

Since you already have it downloaded

Code: Select all

./wireless_script

Thank you, but I've solved the issue late night yesterday. I'll post here the proper solution tonight.
