I'm struggiling to get my TPLINK wifi dongle work in Archlinux ARM64.
I start with netctl start tplink, which tplink being:
Description='A simple WPA encrypted wireless connection'
Interface=wlan0
Connection=wireless
Security=wpa
IP=dhcp
ESSID='wifi_name_here'
# Prepend hexadecimal keys with \"
# If your key starts with ", write it as '""<key>"'
# See also: the section on special quoting rules in netctl.profile(5)
Key='password'
# Uncomment this if your ssid is hidden
#Hidden=yes
# Set a priority for automatic profile selection
#Priority=10
And i get:
[root@KRAKEN netctl] systemctl status netctl@tplink.service -l
* netctl@tplink.service - Networking for netctl profile tplink
