Just checked your DSDT, it declared the AMW0 methods, I agreed Ike's
suggestion that will be better you direct test acer-wmi on your machine.
Please modprobe acer-wmi driver, then try to turn on/off bluetooth or
wireless device by rfkill.
Hello Joey,
here are some findings with acer_wmi. I execute the following steps from
top to bottom, and only after the last step my wifi works. After each
step you find the output of "rfkill list":
after booting (no ideapad_laptop, no acer_wmi):
0: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
after loading acer_wmi (wifi switch is on):
0: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
2: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no
after switching off:
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
2: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no
switching on again:
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
2: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no
3: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
after removing acer_wmi with modprobe -r:
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
3: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
Now wifi networking can be used!
The optimal solution would be to have ideapad_laptop make all
initialisations so wifi can be used after booting with no manual steps
necessary.
