I followed an upgrade procedure to go from 15.3 -> 15.4 (installed on a USB stick). This looks pretty much like the guide I used but I didn’t bookmark it: https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:System_upgrade_to_Leap_15.4
My wifi doesn’t activate after reboot (multiple reboots). I don’t have an ethernet slot on the laptop, so can’t do any updates to see if that sorts out any issues.
I’ve seen a couple of other network posts, but rfkill seems to be used and mine is getting an error. I’ve run commands suggested in other posts to provide data. Any help appreciated.

I did also run a command that said the wifi was ‘enabled’ but I forgot to copy that and can’t find the command now.
Bluetooth isn’t working either - I did also put in a USB stick that is encrypted and it would accept the password but basically then say ‘device not found’. Not sure if these are related, but it seems something not gone quite right.
Thanks for reading.
