Can't connect to a wireless network in Arch Linux netctl
Make sure you have the wpa_actiond
package installed. The service you want to start is [email protected]
Replacing interface with the name of your interface. Based on your question, that would be wlp6s0

I just installed arch linux on my laptop.
But after rebooting, I can't connect to the internet.
Wi-fi is the only available connection to me.
I used the command wifi-menu then after choosing my wifi and entering my passkey, I still can't connect to the internet.This is the error I got:
Job for netctl@wlp6s0\x2dWifi.service failed. See 'systemctl status netctl@wlp6s0\x2dWifi.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
This the output after running systemctl status netctl@wlp6s0\x2dWifi.service
netctl@wlp6s0\x2dWifi.service - Networking for netctl profile wlp6s0x2dWifi
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected]; static
Active: inactive (dead)
Docs: man:netctl.profile(5)Please help. I tried to follow the wiki for netctl but it doesn't work. Maybe i just missed something.
