A way to connect to network through WIFI on Centos 7

Posted 2020-06-18 does

I bought a DELL laptop,but can not connect to network through wifi.There‘s lots of methods on the Internet,but few of them resolve my problem.If u face the same situation,U can try my way.

Phenomenon:

1‘ NO-CARRIER

2‘UNMANAGED

KEY Steps:

1.Get WiFi interface‘s Name

[[email protected] ~]$ nmcli device
DEVICE      TYPE      STATE        CONNECTION
virbr0      bridge    connected    virbr0     
virbr0-nic  tap       connected    virbr0-nic
p1p1        ethernet  unavailable  --         
lo          loopback  unmanaged    --         
wlp6s0      wifi      unmanaged    --

2.Enble WiFi Module

[[email protected] ~]$ ip link show wlp6s0
3: wlp6s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000
    link/ether b0:c0:90:32:c4:fa brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

[[email protected] ~]$ su
Password:
[[email protected] does]# ip link set wlp6s0 up
[[email protected] does]# ip link show wlp6s0
3: wlp6s0: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000
    link/ether b0:c0:90:32:c4:fa brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

3.Scan The Wireless Net

[[email protected] does]# iw wlp6s0 scan | grep SSID
    SSID: AHELLO
    SSID: huohb
    SSID: NULL
    SSID: c2303102
    SSID: xiaofeibao

Note:NULL is the name of my SSID.

[email protected]:~# wpa_passphrase NULL >> /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
123456
[email protected]:~#
(where ‘123456‘ is the Network password)
Note:There is a way to input the ssid and password in the command line,but it doesn‘t work on my PC.
4.Connect to Network
[[email protected] does]# wpa_supplicant -B -i wlp6s0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf 
Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant
[[email protected] does]# ip add show wlp6s0
3: wlp6s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP qlen 1000
    link/ether b0:c0:90:32:c4:fa brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet6 fe80::b2c0:90ff:fe32:c4fa/64 scope link 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
5.Get IP Address
[[email protected] does]# dhclient wlp6s0
[[email protected] does]# ip add show wlp6s0
3: wlp6s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP qlen 1000
    link/ether b0:c0:90:32:c4:fa brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 192.168.1.105/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global dynamic wlp6s0
       valid_lft 7202sec preferred_lft 7202sec
    inet6 fe80::b2c0:90ff:fe32:c4fa/64 scope link 
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
6.Test
[[email protected] does]# ping www.baidu.com
