Hello, this is my first post!
Anyways, I have a newly installed Arch linux on my laptop.
I can connect to the wifi using 'wifi-menu' with no problems, but every 30 seconds or so I get an error that pops up on the console,
"wlo1: failed to remove key (1, ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) from hardware (-22)"
it will keep appearing in std out for a while, yet nothing is 'wrong' noticeably with my internet connection. I checked my dmesg and it only shows the exact same message with no extra detail.
I have had arch linux on this laptop for a while before, and I never seemed to have this issue before. It should be noted that I do not have any GUI installed on my system...this is just pure CLI right now.
EDIT: I now noticed that ever few errors I will also get, "iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Failed to find station" mixed in with the previous errors

For the time being I found a work around...
sudo dmesg -D
it at least stops outputting the error, but that is like trying to cover the oil light on your car with a piece of tape...I would like to fix the issue if possible.

Which laptop are you using? Which wifi card and driver? Which access point? What's the output of iwconfig? Without any of this basic information, we can only make guesses...

I also see that failed to remove key error but only when I disconnect. It seems to be a new error either due to changes in the driver or a new microcode/firmware for the wifi card and it seems to be harmless, at least here things keep working as expected.
Regarding that "Failed to find station" error, no ideas here.
To what x33a is requesting add the output of 'iwlist _your_wifi_card_name scan' so that we can have an idea of how many access points you have around you and the signal strengths.
Here I'm using this wifi card: "Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 3165 Plus Bluetooth [8086:3166] (rev 99)"
Edit:
I do have those "Failed to find station" messages after all.
iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Failed to find station
wlan0: failed to remove key (1, ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) from hardware (-22)

I have the same problem too. I'm running an Intel 8265 on a ThinkPad 13.
I get random connection drops from the WiFi with dmesg showing this:
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Failed to find station
[ 2133.815875] wlp3s0: failed to remove key (1, ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff) from hardware (-22)
The drops aren't very frequent and I can live with that.
I don't know if this occours also when wireless powersave is off (I mostly run on battery and charge overnight)
Unfortunately I can't say from which version of linux I've had this problem because the laptop is brand new.
EDIT: I just got another disconnection without this error. I now think that the network drop is caused by something else.

Sorry, I will try to get that information later tonight. I am at work right now.
Thank you all for your help thus far. I'm still learning how to get basic information about my hardware so I am at least learning a lot from this!

Alright so my laptop is an HP 15-ay041wm, Wifi Card is Intel 3165 (Rev 81).
As far as the other information goes, I'll be honest I'm not sure how to find it.

Interesting, your wifi card is the same as R00KIE's, but Bonnee's is different. Still all of you are using Intel cards.
You can find out the driver being used using lspci: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wi … ver_status
Also post the output of
# iwconfig
# iwlist scan wlo1
Remember to use code tags when posting the output.

I have just noticed that dmesg reports this everytime i boot:
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-8265-28.ucode failed with error -2
Can this be related?

Okay, so I am using iwlwifi as a driver.
Both commands are:
sudo: iwconfig: command not found
and
sudo: iwlist: command not found
I tried installing those commands but pacman did not find them. I also tried to install iw, but I already have that installed.

Nevermind! I installed wireless_tools! Okay, here is my output

Please keep in mind, however, my original issue was at my dad's house with different access points. Where I am at right now, I am connected, (with permission), to another building with a very weak signal.

The iwlist output only makes sense at the place where you have problems, like I said it would be for us to have an idea of how many access points you had around, signal levels, how many access point using the same channel.
On the other hand you say that you don't notice anything wrong so apart from the dmesg spam everything works. Maybe you should check if anyone has reported this upstream and either chime in or create a new bug report if no one has opened on yet.

Okay, I will do that. I am going to go ahead and list this as solved, since it isn't really an issue to me anymore now that I have a GUI. Thank you all for your help.

Hi,
grepping kernel sources, this message comes from mac80211/key.c
it seems nothing more than a message that informs about.
