I've been having issues with the wifi disconnecting with the more recent kernel updates. 5.3.11 works well, wifi is very solid but later releases seem problematic. random disconnections and the like every 10-15 minutes especially if you dont use the link for a little while. searching suggested these module param changes but that hasn't made any improvement. options ipv6 disable=1 options rtl8188ee ips=N msi=Y aspm=0 Jan 5 08:23:12 host-6686 kernel: [ 5164.302946] wlp5s0: Connection to AP XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX lost Jan 5 08:23:12 host-6686 systemd-networkd[569]: wlp5s0: Lost carrier Jan 5 08:23:13 host-6686 ifplugd(wlp5s0)[19185]: Link beat lost.

Yes, the 5.4 kernels have brought new problems. Assuming you have kept 5.3.11, at least you can go on using that for the moment. Please say what kernel you are currently using; the latest released is 5.4.10, but 5.4.12 is in the pipeline. You should try each new kernel to see whether it resolves your problem. Assigning necessarily to the kernel/drivers group.

Thanks for the update. 5.4.6 was the last one i tried. i'll try 5.4.10 then.
5.4.12 is better. it doesnt deauth now but it still goes into wifi la-la land :)
