I am having an issue that seems to happen from time to time to some people, but none of the solutions I have found seem to work.
My wifi is not working.
I was able to connect in the live install environment.
I was able to connect on first boot.
I rebooted without doing anything other than veryfing wifi worked.
Wifi still worked after first reboot.
I then used the garuda assistant to perform a system upgrade, the first step it does. I did not install any of the additional optional software. The upgrade completed with no errors. I then rebooted.
Now wifi does not work and the applet gets stuck at “configuring interface”
Based on searches, I tried the following commands:
[đź”´] Ă— sudo nmcli dev wifi con "Turtle Reef"
Error: Connection activation failed: Secrets were required, but not provided.
I imagine this does not work since by default the password was stored in kwallet, since I initially entered it in plasma as the non-root user.
However, passing the password into the nmcli command, either with the password flag or the --ask switch yields the same result.

[đź”´] Ă— sudo nmcli dev wifi con "<my-wifi-ssid>" --ask

I have also tried the same commands after

╰─λ sudo nmcli radio wifi off && sudo nmcli radio wifi on
I then deleted the connection using
nmcli connections # to show connections
nmcli connections delete "<my-wifi-ssid>"
nmcli connections # to confirm deletion
Then I tried connecting again with the same nmcli commands as above with the same resulting error. However, this time it took about 15 seconds for the error to pop up. It was instant before.

I am guessing something got messed up with upgrading from plasma 6.0 to plasma 6.1 and related gear/framework updates that caused kwallet to be confused, but this should not affect trying to connect as root using nmcli, should it?
I really appreciate any help with this!
