Error in my bug description: "Other computers using Windows CAN still connect to the WIFI network." Also, I still have my problem, but unusual things happened recently. When wifi stopped working on fedora 24, I decided to boot with the previous version displayed when I boot my laptop. At first, wifi was working on this version, but on the next boot, the bug described here happened again on, as for the version before. I then stopped using this laptop (which only has fedora) and used another computer as I had to finish urgent work requiring an Internet connection. For that reason, the laptop with fedora was put off for a few weeks. I recently decided to turn on my laptop with fedora again to try to fix this wifi problem. I booted on 4.6.4-301.fc24.x86_64. However, this time, wifi was working. But there was no sound. My laptop wasn't plugged to a socket. I followed the recommendations on fedora wiki page and it appeared it wasn't linked to alsa but to the kernel. I then restarted and booted on 4.5.7-202.fc23.x86_64, sound was working correctly. I forgot to check if the wifi was working correctly. Then I restarted and booted on 4.6.4-201.fc23.x86_64, sound was working correctly but the wifi had the problem described hereby. I then realized I forgot to check if the WIFI was working correctly on 4.6.4-201.fc23.x86_64, so I restarted and chose to boot on this version. As my laptop was running low on battery, I plugged it during fedora's starting. The wifi was having the problem described hereby. When I restarted and booted again on 4.6.4-301.fc24.x86_64, sound appeared to be working, yet wifi had the problem described hereby again. I put my computer on again and booted directly on fedora 4.6.4-301.fc24.x86_64. This time, the Wi-Fi is working, but there is no sound. This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '24'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
