Wifi Network not listed

[Kalisov]

Hi everyone! I have a problem with Network Screen on Klipper Screen. When I open it i can only see the current connection and can't see other available wifi networks. I was trying this: https://klipperscreen.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Troubleshooting/Network/ but i have different error in logs. I run Klipper on small Thin Client PC with Debian 12 installed. Network manager is installed but it looks like Klipper Screen can't find network interface for some reason. Does someone know what could be the problem?

Here's the fragment of KlipperScreen.log:

2024-02-18 19:48:27,699 [screen.py:_load_panel()] - Loading panel: network 2024-02-18 19:48:27,739 [network.py:__init__()] - Nie znaleziono żadnego bezprzewodowego interfejsu (ang: No wireless interface found) 2024-02-18 19:48:27,767 [screen.py:attach_panel()] - Current panel hierarchy: main_menu > more > network

what is the output of nmcli device status?

pi@ender3v2:~$ nmcli device status
DEVICE         TYPE      STATE                   CONNECTION
mlan0          wifi      połączono               videolan_HALNy-2.4G-8dd4bf
lo             loopback  connected (externally)  lo
p2p-dev-mlan0  wifi-p2p  rozłączono              --
enp1s0         ethernet  niedostępne             --

połączono means: connected
rozłączono means: disconnected
niedostępne means: unavailable

I can connect to different wifi networks using for example nmtui.

that is the issue, the current network backend looks for devices starting with wl as it's the standard naming, i will not code any fixes to the current backend, since i'm developing the new backend that can filter by type, to fix your issue rename the iface to wlan0

Thank You so much! It's now working perfectly!
For future reference i used this:

to change the interface name from mlan0 to wlan0
