Ask Ubuntu Asked by Skïp on December 3, 2021
I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04 on an old computer and every time I wake up the computer from sleep the WiFi drops and there is no way to connect it back (also rarely happens randomly when device is not put to sleep).
The wifi card is an Atheros AR9485 (internal) and is running using ath9k
& everything is up-to-date
I tried plugging in a Belkin USB WiFi dongle and it disables itself with the PCI card every time.
When it does not work rfkill list
shows phy0
(the PCI card) as Hard blocked and there is no way I found that would enable it again besides restarting the computer. (The dongle is not shown as blocked but is still disabled)
If I soft block phy0
with rfkill
its shutdowns the dongle too.
I also tried removing the Atheros card from network-management
and it didn’t change anything.
Debug info when everything is running smooth (no dongle) :
