Steps to fix wifi not connecting despite correct password in Linux Mint 18 and Ubuntu 16.04 I haven’t looked to find if it is a bug in this version of the network manager or not but I experienced the same issue after installing Linux Mint 18. I don’t know exactly what made it work but it worked. What surprised me that it just got connected to the internet after that. I manually entered the wifi password and saved it in the network settings in an effort to not have to enter the long passwords again. I went to the network settings to find out what was wrong with it. I noticed that my wifi password was not stored which could be normal as I was not asked if I wanted to connect to the network automatically. This was frustrating as my wifi password is 26 characters long. This time typing the password slowly and then I double checked it to make sure that the password was correct.īut no, it won’t connect to the internet. I thought it may be that I entered an incorrect password. A few seconds later, I was still not connected to the internet. When I tried to connect to wifi, I clicked on the available wireless networks, entered the correct wifi password. This utility requires curl, wget or lynx to be installed.īecause I found it written that a person who has launched sudo update-pciids then after some time had problems with the wireless device and also with others devices.īecause I do not know where else to go beat my head.I experienced this strange issue in Ubuntu 16.04 and Linux Mint 18. Update-pciids fetches the current version of the pci.ids file from the primary distribution site and installs it.
