Cannot access my network and NAS

cannot access my network and NAS.
I have tried with Manjaro in Live environment and there it works.
Could it have something to do with the firewall. I have not changed anything there.
Is Noob on this with networking :wink:
Regards PaTa

You're going to have to provide more information - noone here has any knowledge about how your network is arranged.

To rule the firewall out

First stop it

systemctl stop firewalld

Then if this allows you to connect to nas

Then you will have to try different zones in firewalld

For ex see if trusted zone works

sudo firewall-cmd --set-default-zone=trusted

You should post your system specs. I realize you posted them on your prior wifi help request. You marked the thread solved, but I have an inkling it wasn’t corrected fully.

Do not have Android phone tethering connected when you run any network diagnostic commands:

Please post again:

I also asked you to post these outputs on your prior help request (but you never did).

Please post:

We will also need far more information on your NAS setup to have any idea what the problem is.

Hi here is some more information.
I use Lan cable and it works fine against the internet.
But I can not access my NAS.

I installed Manjaro in dual boot. There it works to access the NAS.

You don't need to keep posting your ping statistics.

Please post:

cat /etc/resolver.conf

Please post the methods that you have tried to access your NAS.

Did you stop/disable your firewall as @librewish suggested. It would be best to disable the firewall temporarily until you have fixed all your networking issues. Otherwise you will need to stop the firewall after every reboot (unless you create the proper firewall rules).

From looking at your inxi output I'd guess you never really got your wifi issue resolved as your wifi adapter is reporting as dormant. If you are using your laptop via your Ethernet to connect to your NAS (and it's not used to roam) I guess that's not such a big priority.

You never told us what type of NAS you were running or which protocol you were using to connect. I assume you are trying to use Samba to connect to your NAS. Samba is often a pain to get working properly on Arch based distro's. Generally I try to refrain from giving advice on Samba as I feel it is too unreliable and I use NFS.

KDE often does not connect to network shares that well OOTB using Dolphin. Often the best way to access and play media files over your network is by mounting your shares.

I'm getting the feeling your not familiar with this stuff (and it's a ton to understand all at once). Any one of these topics alone could be the subject of a full chapter in a book as they all take a fair bit grasp. I'm thinking you're going to have to do some research and read/watch some tutorials to get an idea how all this stuff works. Here are some links to start you off:

I can confirm that after I set up my NAS using nfs in stead of samba, the Garada KDE installation works OOTB after adding one simple line to fstab to make the NAS available to the KDE cliënt, including Dolphin file browser.

As you write, you are right. I do not know much about setting up networks. What I use is WD Mybook live.
Have not had to bother with this before as it has only worked.
But as you write, it has not worked with Dolphin.
I have then used Nemo without any problems.
Tested with Arco linux with kde as environment and there it works well with Nemo.
Do not know what it may be that makes it not work in Karuda?

WD NAS

This requires kio-extras for remote filesystems. This should already be installed as a dependency.

This needs gvfs-smb for remote Samba shares.

Also, do you have samba installed and active on your client pc? :kissing_heart: Look for samba in Garuda Welcome app, settings tab. WD mybook is presumably samba server configured.

Even when Samba is installed properly and all the services are running it is often super finicky on having the configuration just right to actually work. I hate configuring samba. You go to all the effort of getting it just right, and then some update from upstream totally breaks it.

NFS seems far more straightforward to me to configure. Although, I do not know if his NAS is compatible with NFS. Sorry for all these new confusing terms to learn, but in the end you'll have much better performance if you learn how to do things the Linux way.

For help on possibly setting up nfs on WD nas, maybe refer to community.wd.com. From the web interface to the server you need to enable ssh to the server. After that you might be able to setup the device as an nfs server in stead of the default samba server.

I have to thank you for all the help I have received. But I'm running Arco Linux again now. There works. I have to access my Wd where my pictures are. (Works as a photographer)

Also noticed that KDE connect did not work for me Today. I will certainly come back to test again. Mvh Pata

You have to enable to port in the firewall, its blocked by default. Have a look at this topic :slight_smile:

I'll be back for sure. As a whole, I think Garuda is one of the best Arch.
You in the development team have done a great job :+1::ok_hand:
