To avoid a tool that is claimed to be a deprecated one:
sudo iw dev wlp2s0 scan
(With ifupdown I can help a bit, with the others there are
far more knowledgeable folks than me around here).
Tomas, since Paul has written that the issue was solved, I hope, the
following question related to ifupdown would not be considered as
hijacking the thread.
I have noticed that deprecated wireless-tools have some kind of
integration with ifupdown while README.Debian from iw explicitly states
that no helpers are provided. Do you use in /etc/network/interfaces any
configuration option handled by namely wireless-tools or you have solely
wpasupplicant preferences to connect to access points?
P.S. Since Paul mentioned XFCE and menu, I suspect that WiFi
configuration is handled by NetworkManager and the command to scan for
available networks is
nmcli device wifi list
and just "nmcli" for configuration overview.
