Cold boot does not help. WiFi has a very strange behavior: If I cold boot the WiFi crashes after a random period of time. Also, I've noticed that using torrent clients or accessing speed-test pages like fast.com tend to trigger the error (might be high WiFi load ???? ) If I reboot after a crash the WiFi will crash again. If I reboot into windows after a crash and then reboot into Linux the WiFi works fine. And then, I discovered that if i cold boot into windows and then reboot to Linux the WiFi also works fine. (last time I used it for three hours without any crash)
I've installed focal now on the laptop and I use it as a primary OS. The only catch is that I have to boot cycle through windows in order to have a functional WiFi. I cannot thing of a reasonable explanation for this bug!!!! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1872984 Title: RTL8822BE network driver rtl_wifi crashes on boot in Focal Fossa 20.04 - 5.4.0-21-generic and mainline 5.7.0-050700rc1-generic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1872984/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
