Hi, hopefully someone will be able to help/guide on the next course of action.

I’m trying to connect to my local WiFi network that has no access to the internet (this is intentional) but system won’t connect to the WiFi router for some reason.
systemctl status wpa_supplicant gives the following output:

wlp3s0: SME: Trying to authenticate with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx  (SSID='MY-WIFI' freq=2432 MHz)
Jan 03 18:03:39 HOST wpa_supplicant[2004]: wlp3s0: CTRL-EVENT-DSCP-POLICY clear_all

wifi password is definitely correct as I can connect using different devices. But not sure why host is not connecting to this specific network :frowning:

(it’s worth to note that I can connect to my normal wifi (that has internet access).

I’m not seeing a specific error here. Is DHCP enabled on both sides for that wifi network?
