 |
|
on my gentoo laptop, the wifi always disconnects after a period of time from connecting.
I always see this error whenthe wifi disconnects:
| Code: | Oct 19 11:01:53 samsung wpa_supplicant[1280]: wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-BEACON-LOSS
Oct 19 11:02:30 samsung wpa_supplicant[1280]: wlp2s0: CTRL-EVENT-BEACON-LOSS |
this is my wifi card:
| Code: | | 02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6235 (rev 24) |
I disabled all the tunables in powertop and am still getting the same result.
any idea what I can do about this?

It seem's to be a carrior problem. How high is your signal strench using iwconfig? If it can help you these are my options for the iwlwifi module and some modules it depend on in /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf:
| Code: | options cfg80211 cfg80211_disable_40mhz_24ghz=1 ieee80211_regdom=CA
options iwlmvm power_scheme=1
options iwlwifi bt_coex_active=1 disable_11ac=1 disable_11ax=1 enable_ini=0 fw_restart=0 led_mode=3 power_level=1 power_save=0 swcrypto=0 uapsd_disable=1
options mac80211 max_nullfunc_tries=60 max_probe_tries=60 probe_wait_ms=3600000 |
Disable the 40ghz on the 2.4ghz band may be necessary. I do not allow wifi to do power saving. CA is my country, your may be different. If you use ac (5g) and/or ax you have to put 0 to not be disable or remove the options. Than maybe put 11n_disable=1 on the line. But I think that your Intel wifi card do not support 5g.
If I disable bluetooth coexistence iwlwifi tell me that it is not allowed so, I keep it on. This is my configuration for the 2.4mhz band. This is my Intel wifi card:
| Code: | | Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wi-Fi 6 AX200 [8086:2723] (rev 1a) |
I hope that your kernel configuration have put the iwlwifi support in module to make things easier and that all the Intel firmware files for wifi are on the root filesystem.
See modinfo iwlwifi
