The card is visible but cannot be set "up," either from "ip link" or wpa_supplicant. I am using Arch Linux but have also observed this problem in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I have downloaded the firmware from http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi and followed the instructions there on how to copy it into /lib/firmware. Installing Arch Linux's "compat-drivers-patched" package had no effect. Removing all other PCI/PCI-E devices had no effect. My wired ethernet connection is fully functional. Below is the output of several commands that may be relevant, all run as root. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if I can provide any additional information. Thank you, Edward Seyler # wpa_supplicant -i wlp3s0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/my_wpa.conf -D nl80211 -dd wpa_supplicant v2.0 Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant Initializing interface 'wlp3s0' conf '/etc/wpa_supplicant/my_wpa.conf' driver 'nl80211' ctrl_interface 'N/A' bridge 'N/A' Configuration file '/etc/wpa_supplicant/my_wpa.conf' -> '/etc/wpa_supplicant/my_wpa.conf' Reading configuration file '/etc/wpa_supplicant/my_wpa.conf' Line: 1 - start of a new network block BSSID - hexdump(len=6): e0 46 9a 79 75 46 PSK - hexdump(len=32): [REMOVED] Priority group 0 id=0 ssid='' nl80211: interface wlp3s0 in phy phy0 rfkill: initial event: idx=0 type=1 op=0 soft=0 hard=0 nl80211: Set mode ifindex 3 iftype 2 (STATION) nl80211: Subscribe to mgmt frames with non-AP handle 0x1b26740 nl80211: Register frame type=0xd0 nl_handle=0x1b26740 nl80211: Register frame match - hexdump(len=2): 04 0a nl80211: Register frame type=0xd0 nl_handle=0x1b26740 nl80211: Register frame match - hexdump(len=2): 04 0b nl80211: Register frame type=0xd0 nl_handle=0x1b26740 nl80211: Register frame match - hexdump(len=2): 04 0c nl80211: Register frame type=0xd0 nl_handle=0x1b26740 nl80211: Register frame match - hexdump(len=2): 04 0d nl80211: Register frame type=0xd0 nl_handle=0x1b26740 nl80211: Register frame match - hexdump(len=6): 04 09 50 6f 9a 09 nl80211: Register frame type=0xd0 nl_handle=0x1b26740 nl80211: Register frame match - hexdump(len=5): 7f 50 6f 9a 09 nl80211: Register frame type=0xd0 nl_handle=0x1b26740 nl80211: Register frame match - hexdump(len=1): 06 nl80211: Register frame type=0xd0 nl_handle=0x1b26740 nl80211: Register frame match - hexdump(len=2): 0a 07 nl80211: Register frame type=0xd0 nl_handle=0x1b26740 nl80211: Register frame match - hexdump(len=2): 0a 11 Could not set interface wlp3s0 flags (UP): Connection timed out nl80211: Could not set interface 'wlp3s0' UP netlink: Operstate: linkmode=0, operstate=6 nl80211: Set mode ifindex 3 iftype 2 (STATION) nl80211: Unsubscribe mgmt frames handle 0x1b26740 (mode change) wlp3s0: Failed to initialize driver interface Failed to add interface wlp3s0 wlp3s0: Cancelling scan request wlp3s0: Cancelling authentication timeout (running this command, or ip link set wlp3s0 up, a second time causes the system to lock up) # dmesg | grep iwl [ 9.868028] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: irq 44 for MSI/MSI-X [ 9.942668] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: loaded firmware version 18.168.6.1 [ 10.015848] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG disabled [ 10.015861] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUGFS disabled [ 10.015866] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TRACING enabled [ 10.015872] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TESTMODE disabled [ 10.015877] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: CONFIG_IWLWIFI_P2P enabled [ 10.015884] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Detected Intel(R) Centrino(R) Wireless-N 2200 BGN, REV=0x104 [ 10.015912] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: L1 Disabled; Enabling L0S [ 10.056013] ieee80211 phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'iwl-agn-rs' [ 280.878663] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: L1 Disabled; Enabling L0S [ 280.886234] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Radio type=0x2-0x0-0x0 [ 285.886692] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Failed to load firmware chunk!
