The wifi on my laptop with a forky system stopped connecting to my router as I
performed my weekly
update. I was able to connect after I turned off the MAC filter on my router.
The only thing in my aptitude log that caught my eye was this:
[UPGRADE] wpasupplicant:amd64 2:2.10-25+b2 -> 2:2.11-4
I hope you can identify and fix the change in this delta so I can turn the MAC
filter back on in my
router. Alternatively, if this is a policy change, documenting how to configure
systems to connect
to specific BSSIDs with MAC filters is perfectly acceptable on testing. Thank
you!
p.s. None of the dependent packages listed below were upgraded at this time.
Thanks for the bug report.
First of all, I just wanted to confirm: you’re using NetworkManager, and
it has not been updated lately?
Second, what’s your Wi-Fi adapter/driver? You can find out by running
e.g. `ethtool -i wlan0` or `lspci -k`.
Also, it’d be great if you could run `wpa_cli -i wlan0 log_level debug`
and then make an attempt to connect (with your previous configuration)
and post the log here (anonymising if needed).
Thanks!
