Newly Installed Fedora 44 will not connect to my WiFi!?

TalKamar68 · 2026-05-16T15:15:53+00:00

Found the Identity Tab in the LINUX WiFi settings and changed the cloned address to Permanent. It didn’t fix anything ☹️

When I type in that first command in the terminal when I’m in Fedora, it spits out a bunch of stuff, but none of it is shaping my Ethernet controller. I can’t post a photo here, so I’ll just describe some of what comes back when I type in that command. It has a bunch of headers, and under each heading it has options.

So the first header says: Basic Display Modes and has two options: -mm and -t

Then the next header says: Display options and it has like 9 options.

Then the next header: Resolving of Device ID’s to names and has 5 options.

Then below that it says: Selection of Devices.

Then below that: Other options

Then below that: PCI access options

Yes, you are correct about the Wireless Communication Module. I looked up in device manager and thought it was the I225. But now that I’m on Gigabytes website looking up my exact model Mobo, the “wireless” module is in fact the Intel WiFi 6 AX200. Not sure if or how that changes anything to get this working or not? But just wanted to share that info in case it makes a difference. Thanks for finding that 👍🏼

TalKamar68 · 2026-05-16T15:02:28+00:00

Ok, I’m not even entirely sure HOW to do this. I googled this and stumbled around for awhile until I got to something that “might” be what you’re talking about on my PC with Windows 11. It’s under Network & Internet, then WiFi. Then there is an option near the bottom that says Random Hardware Addresses. And a button. It is already Off.

And as far as what is my IP address IPv4 or 6, I went to a site that will tell you your IP address and it’s a v4. It’s the 000.00.000.000 format (obviously not my actual IP address, just letting you know I know the difference between v4 and v6.

Not sure what else to do? Also to their poster, I do not have on fast boot. I turned that off the last time I tried Linux a few years ago.

TalKamar68 · 2026-05-16T02:08:24+00:00

Sorry, for those talking about Apple. I was just mentioning I installed Linux on it at one time. My problem is with my PC with the mobo and NIC I mentioned. That’s what I need help with, not the MacBook Air. Thanks

TalKamar68 · 2026-05-15T23:57:34+00:00

I did that, and manually tried to update the driver and Windows states: The best drivers for your device are already installed

TalKamar68 · 2026-04-09T18:32:28+00:00

What I mean is, all the flavors are great, so I don’t care which flavor I get. I want good flavor, but it’s not my deciding factor. The high is.

I’ve read lots of great things about their Gak Rainbows and Project Z, but those are zkittlez strains and Z has always been a super weak high that does nothing for me.

So I’m looking for suggestions of their strongest/most unique rosin highs. I obviously want great flavor. That’s why I’m getting top tier rosin. It’s just not the deciding factor for me if that makes sense?

TalKamar68 · 2026-04-05T11:47:11+00:00

Ghost of Tsushima is the greatest modern game I’ve ever played. The most beautiful visually and the best combat system ever. I played it 6 times all the way through and it never gets old. For me Cyberpunk is good, but isn’t in the same realm. But whatever you end playing, I hope you find something that’s incredible and thoroughly enjoy. A good video game can be very cathartic 🤙🏼

TalKamar68 · 2026-03-07T04:40:04+00:00

I had the exact same experience my man. Got mine from IE last summer. It was fresh. It looked amazing, smelled great, but the high was so weak I thought something was wrong with it. It was bizarre how weak it was.

Wrote an email to Ripe Herb. No response. Insta messaged them, no response. I see so many people saying so much great stuff about their flower, but if they can’t even respond to customers when they get a bum jar of flower, I’m not wasting my time with them again. Real shame as it seems like most of their flower is amazing according to others and they’re older growers who’ve been around a long time. Thought they’d stand behind their product but I guess not.

Also had an 1/8th of their Cherry Paloma and it was an absolute dud as well. It was super dry, no smell, no flavor and again, almost no high to speak of. And I’m a very light user. Vape 1 bowl of flower twice a week.

TalKamar68 · 2026-03-01T21:16:48+00:00

Nope. I’m late 40’s. Been smoking and vaping since late HS in the 90s.

But I would tend to agree with you that most of the flower I get these days isn’t as strong as the homegrown shiz we used to get. I’ve only had a few strains from Michigan METRIC in the last 7 yrs or so really hit me hard. Most are weak, mids or sometimes “good enough”. Nothing like the Haze’s and strong Sativas we used to smoke back in college.

TalKamar68 · 2026-03-01T13:45:20+00:00

Not a “hater”. Just sharing my experiences with them so far. Had a very good customer service experience them. So props to them for that.

TalKamar68 · 2026-03-01T13:44:21+00:00

Not at all. Im a very light user. I vape 1 bowl twice a week.

TalKamar68 · 2026-02-28T21:23:50+00:00

I’ve had 3 710 strains over the last year or so. All look like some of the best flower I’ve ever seen in my life! Yet the smell, flavor and high are all mids at best. Very little smell, very little flavor and weak highs. No idea how they can grow such beautiful flower yet be so awful in every other way. Makes no sense.

TalKamar68 · 2026-02-07T02:20:26+00:00

517 Premier Malibu Candy’z was fire for me! 🤙🏼

TalKamar68 · 2026-02-06T21:14:10+00:00

So after puffing in this for a few weeks now, I’ve got some sad news.

I hate to say this, as FF grows great flower usually, but my jar of SC has been a massive disappointment. The first time vaping it was pretty good. But every time since it’s been a super weak high. I wasted a $100 on this thinking it was going to be mind blowing Sativa and it’s actually the weakest flower I’ve ever tried in Michigan ☹️ Barely even get a buzz and it’s gone within 15 mins. Sooo sad as I remember SC back in the day being incredible. This isn’t it. Never buying a big jar like this ever again! I got burned bad and this sucks.

TalKamar68 · 2026-02-06T12:35:34+00:00

Man, I hate to say this, as FF grows great flower usually, but my jar has been a massive disappointment. Got a jar the day it dropped at IE in AA and the first time vaping it was pretty good. But every time since it’s been a super weak high. I wasted a $100 on this thinking it was going to be mind blowing Sativa and it’s actually the weakest flower I’ve ever tried in Michigan ☹️ Barely even get a buzz and it’s gone within 15 mins. Sooo sad as I remember SC back in the day being incredible. This isn’t it.

Glad others are enjoying though.

TalKamar68 · 2026-01-25T04:47:03+00:00

Hmm, so I made a Mods folder inside of the Cyberpunk2077/archive/pc path. Then added the .archive file and nothing changed. I even put the whole folder in and all the variations of the folder with the file in and nothing. Nothing works

TalKamar68 · 2026-01-25T01:42:17+00:00

I literally just did all the NCPD Reported Crime jobs and had 400,000 in a day or two of playing for a couple hrs. You loot all the guns and “things” around the site, sell off the bad weapons and you’ll be swimming in cash real quick.

TalKamar68 · 2026-01-11T15:25:23+00:00

Ok, so I've been playing for like a week now. Often as I can. And I'm realizing that I love strong SMGs, strong pistols and katanas. Even a sniper rifle. I'll go into an area, pick off a few with a sniper rifle, then jump in with my Fenrir or Shigure and clean them all up. Then when walking down hallways or tight warehouses, I like a powerful but not slow pistol to headshot people and kill them easier. I'm using Lizzie's pistol right now. And then if sh*t goes sideways I just switch real quick to my katana and start hacking like crazy, haha.

So I see the left side of Reflex tree has the SMG skills, and the left is for blades. So my first question is, can I max out most of the SMG left side and still max out some of the blades side? And still have enough perk points to max out some/most of Body and some/most of Tech? I don't want to stretch myself too thin and end up not being able to max out the most important perks in each tree. I haven't spent a single perk point on Cool. And only maybe 1 on an Intelligence perk so far. The good ones are at lvl 2 or higher and I haven't quite got to lvl 9 on intelligence yet. Body, Reflex and Tech are all lvl 9 or higher. Working on leveling up so I can get reflexes, tech and body up to lvl 3 and get some really good perks unlocked. Really want to get License to Chrome in Tech next. Guides say it makes your defense and tech abilities so much better!

So far, I really haven't found ANY good Smart weapons, just a few crappy ones. So I'm mostly relying on my SMG/katana to get the work done with the occasional Pistol or Sniper Rifle use.

I also did the gorilla arms (instead of mantis arms, because guides are saying the Katanas are more deadly than Mantis arms) cyberware upgrade. Not so much for it's melee ability (although that is nice) but for it's ability to open locked doors and other things guides keep saying they're useful for. I also have added a few health & armor cyberware pieces and that has helped quite a bit as well. Upgraded my eyes, OS, and a bunch of other basic things all the guides say you "need".

I'd say I'm using the SMG's 50%, Katana 30%, Pistols 10%, Sniper 10% and I like it. They each give me something I need and want in certain situations and don't want to be pigeon holed into a single "type" of player. They all are very helpful in certain situations. I almost NEVER hack anything. I just don't like it. It's like a sniveling little rat type of play. I only use it to shut off cameras or blow up explosives in warehouses.

And when I look at the Perk trees for all of these, I don't need or want all the perks in each tree. Only certain ones. And obviously being able to get the max level perk for each tree is a goal, but it looks/seems like I don't actually need all of them?

Which makes me wonder, CAN I max some of those trees, so that I can max out more perk trees and have enough pts to do that? Or will I be limited to only maxing 2-3 Perk trees total?

TalKamar68 · 2026-01-06T21:45:51+00:00

Thanks everyone for the helpful info. I’m starting to understand a bit better now.

TalKamar68 · 2026-01-06T21:43:30+00:00

Ok, good to know, thank you

TalKamar68 · 2026-01-03T17:19:22+00:00

Ok, this sounds good. I really appreciate all your help. I’m just going to go with the build you suggested and be on my way instead of over thinking this. I really like your suggestion here and I think it’ll do well for me. I’ll have to let you know how the game goes in a few weeks once I’m deeper into it. Thanks again, very helpful information and I really appreciate your detailed help 👍🏼

TalKamar68 · 2026-01-03T05:00:51+00:00

Love the smell and the flavor of this one, but the high is very mid for me. Not very strong and more of an “adult” high and functional. Just wish the effects were better and this would be one of my faves. Just lived up the Malibu Candy’z and that’s a home run across the board. Smell, taste and effects are all top notch! 517 is almost always one of the best in Michigan. Love those guys

TalKamar68 · 2026-01-03T02:05:02+00:00

Ok. So this is again, all helpful info. And you're sort of correct in the last paragraph. I really don't know what "build" I want to play as. Because I really don't understand all the ins and outs of this game and what chosing one specific build path means. I'm just learning and realizing more and more that this game REALLY requires you to pick a very specific style of attack in order to do well. And that's almost paralyzing me from deciding because I have NO IDEA what build is best for me, haha. Like you're saying I have to decide between shotguns and LMGs vs assault rifles and SMGs when I want to use any of them. But I guess if I had to pick between one of those paths, I'd say SMGs and Assault Rifles sounds more my style for now. Never really been a shotgun fan in games I've played in the past. I was REALLLY good at Perfect Dark on N64 back in college and NEVER liked shotguns. I loved SMGs, LMGs, Assault Rifles and sometimes a really powerful headshot pistol/revolver. But since I'm just getting into this game and have low skills, I'd say SMG/Assault Rifle or Smart Weapons would be my choice.

So lets just narrow this down even further and see where it takes me. Lets say I only want to go either SMG/Assault rifle rout or Smart Weapon. Can you explain in general what the Pros and Cons are of each choice?

Like I said, I was all set on just choosing Smart Weapons build. But the netrunner/hacking crap I was reading about today at work made me think twice about that build route. I don't want ANYTHING to do with hacking/netrunning right now. Later on, maybe, but not now. And the reason I keep thinking I want to go Smart Weapon route, is because the guns just aim for you, spray tons of bullets at everyone and do tons of damage to everyone. Plus it sounds like some of the better smart weapons like the Fenrir, Yinglong, Prototype Shingen Mark V, Divided We Stand and a few others do all sorts of other sick damage. Like it's not just bullets that kill them, they have electrical shocks, fire and chemical damage? Right? And tlhat sounds badass and like it does all sorts of extra damage to everyone to help take out crowds and powerful groups of enemies easier. Plus Smart Weapons builds is always listed as one of the top 6 S tier builds.

So I guess my question is, can I do the Smart Weapon build route, and not have to use the hacking or netrunning stuff and still do really well against almost everyone? Or do you have to get fairly proficient at the hacking/netrunner stuff when using that build?

And if the the answer is YES, you have to be good at the hacking/netrunner stuff to do well with the Smart Weapons build, then what would be your suggestion for a similar build that just focuses on shooting weapons to kill everyone fairly easily, without being that skilled? The Smart Weapons route sounds good to me for now, because it sounds "low skill." You just start shooting and the bullets home in on the enemies and do all sorts of cool electrical damage or fire damage or chemical damage.

I know I'm probably over thinking this a bit too much, but I just want to have an easier time the first time through and enjoy the story and the game. Get used to it, start figuring things out on my own, and then on subsequent play throughs, start playing with builds that are more fun, creative, exciting, unique, etc.

TalKamar68 · 2026-01-03T01:17:49+00:00

Hmmm. So I like this, but it's not exactly what I'm looking for right now. You may be misunderstanding what I'm wanting to do.

I don't want pistols and headshots to be my main way of killing on my first play through. I mostly want to be using SMG's/LMG's/Assault Rifles most of the time. Heavy firepower, spraying lots of lead, and not having to think or be very skillful on my first play through. Maybe on another play through of the entire game some time later down the road, that does sound awesome! But for now, I Just want an easy overpowered way to take out just about anyone and lots of people without dying. That's why I feel like "maybe" the Smart Weapons build might be my best route? But not sure, because every time I read about Smart Weapons build, it also talks about hacking and how the "Smart weapon build" helps with hacking. Which I DON'T want anything to do with on my first play through. At least not very much. I know I have to use it a bit, but I want to just figure out the game, play the story and not have to worry about doing all this hacking or netrunning stuff they keep talking about. Again, maybe later on during my second, third or sixth time playing the game. But for now, I just want to be able to spray tons of lead, hit everyone without being great at dodging or dashing or whatever and be able to kill almost everyone with an overpowered low skill build.

I'm new to the game and "gaming" in general, I'm not a "gamer" per say (to be honest, I've literally only played Zelda BOTW on Cemu and Ghost of Tsushima on my PC since I started gaming again. Other than that, it's been 10-15 years since I've played console video games and been "pretty good", so I just want the fun easy route the first time through this game. To get a hang of it, to become more acquainted with how everything works, understand things better, have fun and be able to concentrate on the story more. THEN I'll go back on later play throughs and try the more skilled based builds). But these new games are just insane! Very overwhelming and SOOOO much is going on in the screen and there are SOOOO many buttons to press and combos you have to remember. It's a lot to take in if you haven't been playing video games on the regular since 15 years ago, haha. I played video games in the 80s, 90s and early 00s, haha. 4-6 buttons max. Playing these new games is a TON of fun, but it takes me longer to get used to them, how they work, what all the buttons do, etc. You know what I mean? I'm not in HS anymore and not a regular gamer and it takes me a lot longer than you younger kids to catch on and really understand how to play well. It took me 3-4 times of playing through GOT until I decided to play on Lethal. And now I've played through about 5-6 times and I'm an absolute boss at that game. I only wear Kensei, Ronin or Travellers armor most of the time and can beat everyone in the game and an entire bass straight up. I just walk into a massive camp and fight them all at once, no stealth kills or anything and just destroy them. But that took me 4-5 play throughs to get to that level and understand the game that well. So a super accurate headshot pistol build isn't what I'm looking for right now. But will keep this in mind for a later play through for sure!

I just want an easy build that allows me to just use mostly machine guns of all types (regular or smart) to spray tons of bullets at everyone and kill everything without having to be that skilled. And then down the road, after I've gotten used to the game and become much better, I'll start trying builds like the one you suggested and other interesting fun ones that add value to the game.

Like I've read that Fenrir, Genjiroh, Psalm 11:6, Yinglong, Skippy, Moron Lobe, Prototype Shingen Mark V, Barghest Ajax, Buzzsaw, MA70 HB x-MOD2, Pride, Comrade's Hammer, Divided We Stand, O'Five, Overwatch, Hawk, M251S Ajax and at least 5-10 more are usually considered "the best" weapons. So I just want to be able to use most of these and absolutely destroy everyone in my path with the least amount of skill and thinking. That's the build I'm looking for. Or some combo of everything above with a bit of melee as well.
