ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirementsA proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

Original report
What do you need?
I’m experiencing a Wi-Fi connectivity issue in Omarchy 3.1. My PC’s built-in Wi-Fi doesn’t function unless I use an external USB Wi-Fi antenna/adapter. On other operating systems such as Windows, Ubuntu, and Fedora, I can choose between the internal Wi-Fi and the external adapter directly from the Wi-Fi settings.
However, in Omarchy 3.1, this option no longer appears. The system only shows one non-functional Wi-Fi interface. In Omarchy 3.0, the external antenna was somehow working automatically without me having to select it — when I unplugged it, the Wi-Fi stopped working, meaning it was being used by default. Now in Omarchy 3.1, it does not connect at all, even when the antenna is plugged in.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Boot into Omarchy 3.1.
- Plug in an external USB Wi-Fi antenna/adapter.
- Open Wi-Fi settings.
- Notice that there’s no option to select or switch between Wi-Fi adapters.
- Try connecting to a Wi-Fi network — the connection fails or never establishes.
Expected Behavior:
Omarchy should detect all available Wi-Fi adapters (both internal and external) and allow the user to select which one to use for the connection, as other systems do.
Actual Behavior:
Only a single Wi-Fi interface appears, and Wi-Fi fails to connect. The external USB adapter that previously worked automatically in Omarchy 3.0 no longer functions in version 3.1.
System Information:
- Omarchy Version: 3.1
- Previous Version (partially working): 3.0
- Wi-Fi Adapter Type: External USB Wi-Fi antenna
Additional Notes:
It would be helpful if future versions included improved Wi-Fi driver and adapter support or a setting to manually choose which network interface to use.
