No Wifi Adapter in my-sys-net (based on fedora-24-minimal)
P R
Hello,
my Lenovo W540 is working without any problems under Qubes 3.2 with the fedora-23 templates.
I have now created a new template based on fedora-24-minimal which I use für my Net-VM, Firewall-VM and also USB-Qube.
Strangely my Wifi adapter is not available in my sys-net (based on fedora-24-minimal) while it is working without any problems in the sys-net (based on fedora-23).
I have verified that all modules which are running in fedora-23 sys-net VM are also available in fedora-24 sys-net VM.

In the fedora-24 net-VM I've run the following command:
sudo modprobe -v iwlwifi
sudo modprobe -v iwlmvm
sudo modprobe -v mac80211
sudo modprobe -v cfg80211
When I start my sys-net (fedora-24) I still can't setup my wifi-connection, as I can't choose a device in network manager for the wifi-connection.
The list is empty.
When I run lspci in my sys-net (fedora-24) I can see that the internal network card and also my wifi card are known to the system, but I still can't setup a wifi connection.
Any ideas what I should do at this point?
I've looked at the Qubes Documentation at: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/wireless-troubleshooting/
... but I didn't find a suggestion what to try next.
Any help would be great.

IIRC it's called iwl7260-firmware or something like that.

I guess you need to install any firmware packages for your network devices first.

with the Qubes OS 3.2 installation.
Transferred the file to my new fedora-24-minimal sys-net Net-VM and
untar'red it.
After a reboot I got Wifi working.
Thanks for the hint.
Unfortunarely the trick didn't work to get my mobile broadband (LTE
modem) working, see my other posting about this.

copying the firmware files manually.
Before creating the NetVM, make sure your template has the firmware
packages installed. This way they will be present on the NetVM and you
can update them along with the rest of the system, when needed.
