Wireless AP working with every OS except Arch

I'm visiting my girlfriend in Japan and unable to connect to her wireless access point when running Linux on my laptop. There are no problems connecting with my Android phone, her iPhone, and even my laptop when running Windows (I dual boot), so even if the AP is doing something wrong, every other OS seems to have no issue with it. The AP is an unsecured* Netgear WGT634U provided by her ISP, and my laptop is a Lenovo ThinkPad L530. lspci gives the following:
06:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 2200 (rev c4)
I usually use NetworkManager, and the system log contains the following when I try to connect:

I did some searching and found some links suggesting that the problem was related to NetworkManager and its GUI, so I disabled it and tried using wifi-menu/netctl instead. No luck:

* I thought of enabling security to see if that would help at all (and because you should generally avoid running unsecured access points), but she said doing so has caused her problems in the past, so I'm not messing with it for now.

That's strange, yes. What happens when you try to associate manually?
After stopping all active NM/netctl/dhcp (explanations in the wiki):
rfkill unblock all
ip link set wlp6s0 up
iw dev wlp6s0 scan
iw dev wlp6s0 connect "NETGEAR"

  • Airport Express works with every device except base PC

    I recently purchased an Airport Express to replace my dead Netgear wireless router. After installing the software on my laptop (which is also new, but worked with the old Netgear router), I was unable to connect to the network. My iPad, our iPhones, and her laptop all connect easily. I've tried rebooting my Comcast modem, and several other things I've read in forums to no avail. Did I miss something when setting up the software? I'm no exactly tech savvy when it comes to this kind of stuff, so any help you guys could give would be awesome!!

    Change the channel on the Airport Express to a channel between 1 and 11 and see if that makes a difference.

  • In iOS8, my third party keyboards are working with every app except for the standard "Messages" app.  How do I fix this issue?

    I recently updated to iOS8 and downloaded a few third party keyboards.  These keyboards are usable and available with all apps except for the "Messages" app.  The third party keyboards don't even show up as an option while typing a text message or an iMessage.  I have allowed these keyboards Full Access and have turn off Guided Access.

    Hey everyone in Apple world!
    I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP!  Yessssss!!!
    I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process.  Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal.  No flashing yellow screen anymore!!   
    (Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
    Let me know if this works for you!

  • I have a Hawaiian keyboard that works on every browser except Firefox. It used to work, but now it doesn't. So, I end up having to use Windows products when I would rather use Firefox.

    I have a Keyman Desktop 7.1 Hawaiian keyboard that uses the Alt along with the corresponding letters to make the correct letters. It seems to be compatible with every browser except the one I want to use...Firefox.

    Do you see the names and passwords in the password manager?

    Make sure that you not run Firefox in [[Private Browsing]] mode.

  • Printer works on every program except trying to print anything from Firefox. Blank pages everytime.

    Using Windows XPproffesional & current Firefox 4.0.1. Printer works on every program except anything from Firefox,.blank page every time. When I hit File>Print; the "Print Frames" section in lower left hand box has no options checked and is unaccessible. Printing works fine in Explorer.

    edmeister; thanks for trying to help. I reset the printer per the instructions you provided and also checked that I wasn't printing to file. Even unistalled Firefox, and installed 3.6; same thing happened. So, I uninstalled 3.6 and reinstalled 4.0; still having same problem. But, can still print in IExplorer?

  • Trying to get a WRT54GX2 wireless router working with a W...

    Trying to get a WRT54GX2 wireless router working with a WPC54G wireless card. The laptop and desktop both will access the Internet and work when hardwired through the router's Ethernet ports. When trying to access wireless, the Laptop shows to be connected to the router and also to Internet, but Internet Explorer can not access any websites.  Suggestions? Thanks.

    what ip address does the laptop get ?? ensure that the laptop is not set for a static ip add....and it gets an ip add from the router ..

  • WRT110 works for every website except ONE after login, help please

    I have a WRT110 version 1.0
    It works for every website, except one. And it works for that one website just fine, until I login. When I enter my username/password it accepts it then redirects me to the companies landing page. I can see that because the URL loading changes and it shows the Title in the page which indicates it connected, but then it just sits there 'loading', in the status bar I see the message: "Waiting for tools.domain.com... to load" or something like that. and it takes like 5 to 10 minutes, no joke, then it loads.
    If I connect my computer directly to the modem and bypass the router, then it loads just fine, very fast like everything else.
    But then when I re-connect my router and refresh the page, it does it again, takes forever, but I can instanly see the title of the page in the title bar.
    It works on every computer that I connect trough the mobile hotspot on my 4G verizon phone. but if it is through the router, every computer takes 5 to 10 minutes. Literrally.
    Anyone have this happen to them? If so, how did you fix it?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Try the following settings:
    # Open up the browser on the desktop and on the address bar type 192.168.1.1 that will open up the Router setup page…
    # Lower the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) from 1500 to 1400 or less (usually found on your router's main/ basic setup page)
    # Then click on Security tab disable SPI Firewall Protection, uncheck Filter Anonymous Internet Requests...
    Now check the connectivity status.

    Hi  sparhk, and welcome.
    One of the Lenovo staff who frequents the forum put out a call to help you in a private forum.  I do a little Linux, so I poked into it.  To my amazement my first Google hit was your thread where you indicate you have solved the problem.  (At least, it _looks_ like you...)
    May I respectfully suggest that a post back here indicating success would be a nice touch?  That way anyone who passes by looking for help with this issue will have a better chance of finding it.  For posterity, here it is (see post number 25):

  • Does the hp mini wireless mouse work with a mac?

    Does the hp mini wireless mouse work with a mac?

    The only one that will work with OSX is the one you order with the Mac Pro from Apple. The others don't have the correct firmware for OSX.
    I've also noticed that the online store lets have an option for the QuadroFX 5800 to purchase with a Mac Pro
    No, it's the NVIDIA Quadro FX 5600. That is the only way to get it. NVIDIA does not sell it directly.

  • My Telus wireless only works with WEP, but if I switch to WEP the wireless goes down on the other Windows computer being used in the same house.  Is there a way for both of us to get wireless internet or do one of us have to be connected by the ethernet?

    My Telus wireless only works with WEP, but if I switch to WEP, the wireless on the other computers in the house (which is Windows and WPA) stops working. My computer works with the ethernet cord but I want to be wireless too!  Do one of us have to sacrifice our wireless?

    For assistance in getting your MacBook to connect to a WEP-protected wireless network, please check out this Apple Support article: AirPort: Joining an encrypted WEP or WPA Wi-Fi network

    Nothing will print. My printer works with every other program, but not this one!

    I see the printer, in blue when I click on the hardware tab. Actually there are 2 things listed that have to do with the printer.
    The first one is called:
                    HP Photosmart Prem C410 series (DOT4PRIN.... and under the Type it is listed as IEEE1284.4...
    The next is listed as:
                    HP Phototsmart Prem C410 series and under the Type heading it says Printers.
    I don't know which one to pick.  So when I choose the name highlighted in blue, what do I do to change the name?
