  • @Link @linux Yeah the kernel changes nothing, I might have to change to intel because I dont know what else to do at software level
    About the @ , I’m using my mastodon account to write all these posts and they are added automatically. Besides thats the best way for the posts I write in mastodon to appear as comments in lemmy clients. If they look weird to you it might be activitypub compatibility bugs but nothing too important :)

  • @Rustmilian @linux Just tried that but no change. iwconfig was not found but I installed it through the wireless_tools arch package. Also confirmed that the linux-firmware package was always been installed with the iwlwifi-8265-34 and iwlwifi-8265-36 files in the folder you said. When I ran the iwconfig wlan0 power off command, there was no error but the connection quality didnt change, so I didnt do the rest of the suggestions
    @Link commented they had the same issue but in the end decided that the solution was replacing the realtek card for an intel because the drivers just dont work. Im starting to agree, but still dont know how this issue didnt exist when I had fedora running




  • @Rustmilian @linux Thank you for your help! I did what you suggested and it fixed about 80% of the problem. I no longer randomly disconnect from the network and it is way faster than before, although download speed is still 8x slower than it was last week when I had fedora running instead of arch. I think I’m going to try more values for the 11n_disable parameter (there is no power management to disable), but even if it doesnt improve my machine is at least usable now. Thanks!
