Fedora 25 no wifi
So i am extremely new to linux in general. I put Fedora 25 on a new HDD and cannot connect to the wifi. It doesnt even show in the network settings an option for WiFi. I have ran all of these commands from a different post.
sudo dnf install -y https://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-25.noarch.rpm https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-25.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf install -y broadcom-wl kernel-devel
sudo akmods --force --kernel `uname -r` --akmod wl
sudo modprobe -a wl
When i run the last command sudo modprobe -a wl i get this in return
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'wl': Required key not available
Please Help!!??
Welcome to ask.fedora. (I have formatted your post to make it easier to read - please feel free to use the format options in future, they are available in the little bar above the text box).
So, the first three commands run through without any problem or error message?
What's your hardware? Please provide the output of
lspci | grep -i wireok. if lspci does not list any network controller does that mean that there is no wifi card or no wifi driver? or just both?
That usually means there is no wifi adapter or it's not recognized. (driver comes to play later)
If it's a USB device, you can see it with the
lsusbcommand.how can I know that wifi hardware has been detected but the driver is not working.
