Hi [member=48345]esloch[/member] ,
You have the ethernet driver up and the wifi down as I read the output of inxi -FN
Network:
Device-1: Realtek RTL810xE PCI Express Fast Ethernet driver: r8169
IF: enp2s0 state: up speed: 100 Mbps duplex: full mac: 00:1f:16:04:9a:c4
Device-2: Qualcomm Atheros AR242x / AR542x Wireless Network Adapter
driver: ath5k
IF: wlp8s0 state: down mac: 00:22:5f:0d:29:0a
Device-3: Realtek 802.11n WLAN Adapter type: USB driver: option,option1
Please, post the output of the followin terminal command, in order to see whether the adapter is :
journalctl -xe | grep ath5k
Hope this help,
Regards
