I have a Lenovo Thinkpad X220. I recently changed my hard disk drive to an SSD and installed Arch Linux on it. What happens is that, when I try to connect to a Wifi Network via wifi-menu, it doesn't connect. wifi-menu shows me the different networks that are available to connect, and when typing the password it immediately fails. Not sure what drivers I should install, and the only way I can connect to the Internet is through a wired connection. I think this can be useful: > $ lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net 00:19.0 Ethernet controller : Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection (Lewisville) [8086:1502] (rev 04) Subsystem: Lenovo ThinkPad T520 [17aa:21ce] Kernel driver in use: e1000e -- 03:00.0 Network controller : Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6205 [Taylor Peak] [8086:0085] (rev 34) Subsystem: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6205 (802.11a/b/g/n) [8086:1311] Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi So this is the output for when trying to connect manually using wpa_supplicant > $ sudo wpa_supplicant -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -i wlp3s0 Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant wlp3s0: SME: Trying to authenticate with 82:2a:a8:31:9c:51 (SSID='CATEGORIES' freq=2437 MHz) wlp3s0: Trying to associate with 82:2a:a8:31:9c:51 (SSID='CATEGORIES' freq=2437 MHz) wlp3s0: Associated with 82:2a:a8:31:9c:51 wlp3s0: CTRL-EVENT-SUBNET-STATUS-UPDATE status=0 wlp3s0: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=82:2a:a8:31:9c:51 reason=3 locally_generated=1 wlp3s0: SME: Trying to authenticate with 82:2a:a8:31:9c:36 (SSID='CATEGORIES' freq=2412 MHz) wlp3s0: SME: Trying to authenticate with 82:2a:a8:31:9c:51 (SSID='CATEGORIES' freq=2437 MHz) wlp3s0: Trying to associate with 82:2a:a8:31:9c:51 (SSID='CATEGORIES' freq=2437 MHz) wlp3s0: Associated with 82:2a:a8:31:9c:51 wlp3s0: CTRL-EVENT-SUBNET-STATUS-UPDATE status=0 wlp3s0: WPA: Failed to set PTK to the driver (alg=3 keylen=16 bssid=82:2a:a8:31:9c:51) wlp3s0: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=82:2a:a8:31:9c:51 reason=1 locally_generated=1 wlp3s0: WPA: 4-Way Handshake failed - pre-shared key may be incorrect wlp3s0: CTRL-EVENT-SSID-TEMP-DISABLED id=0 ssid="CATEGORIES" auth_failures=1 duration=10 reason=CONN_FAILED ^Cnl80211: deinit ifname=wlp3s0 disabled_11b_rates=0 wlp3s0: CTRL-EVENT-TERMINATING
