WIFI disconnects randomly every ≈30 minutes on my laptop, when i check my android phone it’s ok. this started with latest update.
should i wait for the next system update, or use some tricks i found online like the “[connection]/n
wifi.powersave = 2” or " [device] \n wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no`", and is there no bad effects with these suggested fixes
