If your Wi-Fi interface is not working, for example:

  • No hay opción Wi-Fi en el menú del sistema:

  • Recibes la notificación Error de conexión: la activación de la conexión de red falló.

  • La interfaz está deshabilitada cuando Tails se inicia o se conecta un adaptador Wi-Fi USB:

    Notificación sobre la desactivación de la tarjeta de red

    In this case, you can disable MAC address anonymization to get your Wi-Fi interface to work in Tails. Disabling MAC address anonymization has security implications, so read carefully our documentation about MAC address anonymization before doing so.

Para conectarte a Internet, puedes probar a:

  • Usa un cable Ethernet en vez de Wi-Fi si es posible. Los adaptadores por cable funcionan mejor en Tails.

  • Comparta la conexión de datos móviles o Wi-Fi de su teléfono con un cable USB. Compartir una conexión de esta manera se denomina Anclaje a red USB.

    Tails cannot hide the information that identifies your phone on the local network. If you connect your phone to:

    • A Wi-Fi network, then the network will know the MAC address of your phone. This has security implications that are discussed in our documentation on MAC address anonymization. Some phones have a feature to hide the real MAC address of the phone.

    • A mobile data network, then the network will be able to know the identifier of your SIM card (IMSI) and also the serial number of your phone (IMEI).

  • Compre un adaptador USB Wi-Fi que funcione en Tails:
