Hello,
i have some WiFi problems with my PC since im using Manjaro. First i was using the build in Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2230 WiFi Card. But i had a terrible download rate after some minutes of use, the related thread can be found here: WiFi suddenly gets slow / after reconnect its fast again
So i decided to buy an USB WiFi adapter and disable the Intel Card, but after some browsing my connection disconnects, then reconnects and the message Authorization supplicant timed out error appears. It happens randomly, i cant reproduce it.
Ok some facts:

Manual i used to install the driver for the 8812BU Chipset (its the chipset of the USB dongle):

I disabled the internal intel wifi card by blacklisting iwlwifi module:
cd /etc/modprobe.d
sudo touch blacklist.conf
sudo nano blacklist.conf
blacklist iwlwifi
And set the Region to Germany
sudo iw reg get
sudo iw reg set DE
cd /etc/conf.d
sudo nano wireless-regdom
=> removed the # in front of WIRELESS_REGDOM="DE" and saved it.
And now im out of knowledge what causes this issue. Does anybody have an idea?
