WiFi enabled but refuses to connect
#5
@andreas.nauer  There is a known issue with that latest PBP shipments where the privacy switch for the wifi was left disabled. Meaning you need to and hold the pinecone key + F11 for three seconds. If the NUM lock led blinks twice, WiFi is enabled, but you'll need to restart your PBP before it works. If NUM lock blinks three times, you just disabled the WiFi, so press and hold the pinecone key + F11 and it should blink twice. And you'll need to restart your PBP.

@cardboardmaster I've been running Manjaro on mine since around February/March, and WiFi has been working fine. I just double checked as I installed the latest batch of updates to the stable channel, and it's still running fine, so I don't know what's happening there for one distro to work, and another to not work.
