I've found the cause of my wireless woes with the TPLink TL-WN821NV2.
Nixos is missing the firrmware
[ 4636.966046] usb 6-4: new high-speed USB device number 5 using ehci-pci
[ 4637.132322] usb 6-4: New USB device found, idVendor=0cf3, idProduct=1002
[ 4637.132335] usb 6-4: New USB device
I have discovered the vmware video driver won't build. How do I dfisable
this driver from being loaded? I only have an ATI card, I don't need these
superflous video card drivers being built. This also explains why the
wireless doesn't work .. it never finishes the upgrade.

Try setting hardware.opengl.videoDrivers

Thanks Domen that worked for my videocard. My wireless still doesn't
work as of yet,
trying the earlier fix suggested.
Aloha,

For wireless with a GUI manager, I would recommend

Hi guys,
i've recently switched to a wireless configuration. Where can I download
the WICD and other wireless packages? I'm on 64bit nixos. And after
downloading, how do I install them? I do have a windows laptop to download
packages with.
Aloha,
RK.

Hi. Have you checked this wiki?
https://nixos.org/wiki/WICD
By the way, NetworkManager or KDE's equivalent may be a better choice
for managing wireless networks. Wicd worked for me too, but it looks
abandoned by it's developers.

I made the following change to configuratoin.nix
networking.networkmanager.enable = true;
This is the error message. How do I get NetworkManager running? Or any
other way of getting wireless up?
starting the following units: default.target, getty.target,
graphical.target, ip-up.target,
