That's kinda hard to troubleshoot if you don't even have the system setup anymore to test out stuff and go through logs.
My only advice would be to hop onto the nobara discord. The people there are really knowledgeable and helpful.
Yup this is true lol. I was hoping it was something well known and had an easy fix. For now I'm going to continue to use the popos install since it's working well.
from the liveUSB can do you a lspci and see what wifi card is installed?
I would guess they turn every option on for a liveUSB in the kernel but then only enable the largest vendors/options for the default install.
It would help to know what your wifi card is. Did you look in dmesg for any clues? You're probably missing the firmware blobs.
It's a usb wifi adapter Netgear model:A6210.
Doesn't tell me much, Netgear uses a variety of chipsets
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
