Librem 11 WiFi missing

Hardware

So yesterday I received my lovely new Librem 11. I love it. It is everything I wanted my L5 to be minus the phone aspect.

I just love the performance and the keyboard is delightful.

In fact it was so much like aPc I found myself, out of habit, issuing as root

apt update -y && apt upgrade -y && apt autoremove -y

After which I had no networking. I stupidly removed rhe connection using the GUI - not sure why in hindsight, but now I have no WiFi.

Any suggestions on getting it back? I have nothing on there yet, maybe a reflash/reset?

Have you checked the logs? Maybe you can find what was removed, then reinstall it.

A reflash is probably a good idea just to familiarize yourself with how different the procedure is from the Librem 5:

Well I went to check the logs and on startup was prompted for a WiFi password. Go figure.

All is well that ends well and I am writing this on my Librem 11.

I am not sure what happened but I have learned to let sleeping dogs lie.

I am absolutely LOVING this tablet. If only I could get my L5 to be as fast. Everything on here “just works” where the L5 struggles.

You can use Mobian ‘Bookworm’, which is my current daily driver for the Librem 5:
