Recently I installed CentOS on my Laptop (Lenovo G50-80), but I can't connect to my 5GHz network
I installed CentOS alongside Debian, and in Debian, I don't have a similar problem, and the interesting part is that when I was installing CentOS (Partitioning, Selecting Time Zone, ...) I connected to the same 5GHz network (I got my IP address and Time zone was set automatically, and during the installation, some packages were downloading too [Totally I mean connection was successful])
I downloaded firmware and copied it to /lib/firmware and restarted my PC but nothing happened
"iwlwifi-3160-ucode-25.30.14.0.tgz" from this page https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en ... rking.html
I give you some outputs that might help:
