I wish you could help me with this matter which is WiFi hard blocked in my Linux machine and can't get the WiFi up.
My device is an HP Pavilion G6 and WiFi card is Ralink 5390; the default of the manufacturer.
The story begin when I have dual booted my Windows and ParrotOS distro my WiFi was working perfectly fine in both OS's I don’t know why but someday my WiFi decided to stop in every Linux thing!
When you type the
rfkill list all
command in the terminal you will see response like this
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
1: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
Here what i did.
I have read every forum in the internet and tried every solution possible for it.
- Like turning off the battery and AC cable.
- Tried to boot every Linux distro with usb bootable iso (Ubuntu, Debian, arch Linux, core Linux, fedora, LinuxMint and many many more ).
- Tried to removing the pin 20 in my wireless card.
- Tried to BlackList WMI and many more things.
- Tried to restore the bios settings, it doesn't really have that much of a setting.
- Tried to removing RF-kill and reinstall it (I don't know what I'm doing anymore)
- Tried to turn off the Fast boot setting in Windows.
And nothing has worked!
Note that the WiFi is working fine in the Windows system and no issues at all.
I really need it and can't afford a new WiFi adapter it's too much expensive in my city.
