Your wifi-card may need a proprietary driver which GuixSD doesn't include (because Guix only has official packages for free/libre software because Guix doesn't want to encourage you to use restrictive, perhaps harmful, proprietary software). (That's why I personally use a wifi-dongle based on the chipset AR9271 which can be used with the free ath9k_htc driver.) > I tried connecting to a modem via Ethernet, it detects the modem but I cannot connect to the internet: > "2 DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping." Which command leads to this error? Is it something like `dhclient -v INTERFACE`? I never heard of this error before. I guess we need more information to help you here. Maybe you could also tell us the details of your ethernet controller?
