Hello,
Today, my Wi-fi stopped working all of a sudden in the middle of a video call. All Wi-fi networks in the network menu/list disappeared.
Later in the day, after rebooting / switching users many times, wi-fi started working again for 1 hour or so. Then, the same exact problem happened and I could not detect any networks. Again, later in the afternoon, I went to university, I got to connect to its Wi-fi network and half an hour later the error repeated again.
Now I haven’t had any chance to detect any Wi-fi for some hours. The only thing I can do is to share my connection via Bluetooth from my mobile phone, and it does work well. No ethernet since my computer has no ports.
I suspect it might be a hardware issue?, but I have no idea how to troubleshoot, and I wonder if there are any ways to know the source of the error. I had previously had strange issues related to wi-fi not working when my GPU was running. My laptop is really small and I have wondered for some time that space constraints / overheat might be provoking some errors.
Anyway, if someone wants to give it a try and help me it’d be really appreciated.
Additional info:
- NetworkManager daemon is active and running at all times.
- I have tried to boot another Manjaro from an USB and I had the same issue there - no networks detected.
- I have not updated any packages for some days now nor I have made any significant changes.
- Wi-fi works fine in my phone and other devices.
- I’ve been using Manjaro KDE for some months now, not a fresh install.
