Peter,
I just put down a fresh image:
fedora-arm-image-installer
--image=/home/rgm/arm/Fedora-Server-armhfp-26-1.5-sda.raw.xz
--target=Cubieboard2 --media=/dev/sdb --norootpass --selinux=ON --addconsole
booted up via a USBTTY dongle, set the timezone, hostname, and root
password. Continued and logged in.
No dnf update. This is the software levels shipped.
After logging in, inserted the wifi USB dongle and and same bad results. So
What make/model/chipset/driver? You need to provide more information
that "usb dongle"
I believe there is some key component missing for wifi support via nmcli in
There isn't, I use it literally on dozens of different ARM devices
exactly as you define above, there might well be with your specific
version USB dongle but it's not generally got an issue.
the minimal server. It works just fine with the F26-Xfce image and the
Centos7-arm image.
So please give me some idea of what may be missing. I am happy to test
installing and getting this working. In fact I really NEED to get this
working by Nov 5 when I leave for pre-IETF travel...
I don't see what the travel has to do with this bug report
thanks
Bob

I took my F26 cubieboard to a hackathon where all they have here is
wireless.
So I put in a wifi usb dongle and see wlan0 available:
# nmcli device status
DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION
eth0 ethernet unavailable --
lo loopback unmanaged --
wlan0 wifi unmanaged --
I create a connection:
nmcli con add con-name cobo ifname wlan0 type wifi ssid CoboFree
I use "nmcli device wifi connect SSID-Name password wireless-password"
regularly on F-26 without issue to connect to wireless networks
