Hello Manjaro people,
I newly installed Manjaro on my desktop and my laptop, it’s been working flawlessly with my desktop, but my laptop has some problems it has always had with Linux…
Before switching to Manjaro I had Parrot OS (Debian based) installed on my laptop (my laptop has an intel pentium silver n5000 cpu, 8 gigs of ram, and a Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 WiFi card).
Every time I was using the Internet, I was able to use it but suddenly it would stop and not work at all. I was still connected to the internet but I had no signal.
On Parrot OS I had the command iwconfig
and to troubleshoot this problem I always manually typed the command sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate auto
into the terminal and my internet would suddenly start working again.
So I thought it was a problem of the rate, but I cannot set the rate manually and iwlist bitrate
says that the bitrate information is unknown. Current bitrate is always at 6Mb/s.
After installing the iwconfig
command on my laptop running Manjaro now, I can use the command to set the bitrate to auto again and my internet starts working again when it stops working. I can also restart the network manager service and it will work again for a short while.
I really don’t know what it could be, I am using the ath10k_pci drivers, I feel like I’ve searched the whole web, to no avail…
I am using kernel 5.8.16-2.
I have also tried using the LTS kernel(5.4.72-1), but that also doesn’t work.
The output to dmesg | grep ath10k
is:
