hello

thanks to the quick response. i am still not able to start my wifi. i added my data to the wpa_passphase and then tried to discover the dhcp but with no success. when i run the wpa_cli  i get

<3>CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-STARTED
<3>CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS
<4>Failed to initiate sched scan
<3>CTRL-EVENT-NETWORK-NOT-FOUND

from wpa_cli status i get

Selected interface 'wlan0'
wpa_state=SCANNING
address=b2:24:63:b5:cf:c6
uuid=e6e25df3-d31b-5007-af44-215ba81b7184

but from the command iw wlan0 scan i can see my wifi-router
