5.10.14-200.fc33.x86_64

Hi everyone,

Since upgrading Fedora my wifi has completely stopped working, even if I use usb card it no longer works. has anyone else experienced this?

My log files have:
iwlwifi 0000:00:14.3: No beacon heard and the time event is over already…

wpa_supplicant errors
dbus: wpa_dbus_property_changed: no property SessionLength in object /fi/w1/wpa_supplicant1/Interfaces/1

and

Failed to add supported operating classes IE

My wifi network is operational, as I have a Thinkpad that I didn’t upgrade, and its working fine.

Hello,

Was it a system upgrade (e.g. Fedora 32 to 33) or a package upgrade? If the latter, can you show us the transaction info to see what exactly got upgraded? To see a history of past transactions, use dnf history and to see the info of a transaction dnf history info [ID].

At the moment, I’m looking if the error has been reported somewhere else.

Hi, so it was only a system update, here are the last transactions:
After around 6 hours the wifi had started to connect again.

This wasn’t a router issue as I have 2 separate routers, a fiber optic, and an LTE running openWRT.
All my other devices could connect with no issues, even so, I rebooted them to make sure.

I also tried 2 known and tested usb wifi cards, these also could not connect through this system. I also rebooted the Fedora workstation to make sure that nothing funky was happening. It seems like somehow Network manager had screwed up and just wouldn’t authenticate.
