WiFi Disconnects and Reconnects Randomly [Intel Wireless 3165]

Hello,

After an update I probably shouldn't have done, my wifi has been acting up specifically on an enterprise network at school. It works relatively well on a simple Personal WPA2 network but the network icon has a warning symbol all the time even when using ethernet. I'm not sure what information I should give but this is most likely because of an update bug. How would I patch this?

I had the same bug some weeks ago, and this next link to ArchWiki solved the issue: (I am working with NetworkManager & DHCP)

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … h_dhclient

Hopefully this can helps you.

Edit: URL

Cheers

Maybe I did it wrong but its not fixed. I made the /etc/dhclient.conf file and added what it said on the wiki, still disconnecting and reconnecting randomly.

The command you were looking for is "sudo journalctl -b"
The portion that you posted doesn't suggest any wifi related issues and you also get leases for wls8 and enp0s20f0u1

How do you determine that "wifi has been acting up"? Is it only about the icon in the status bar and are you sure that's not just because of nordvpn?

Ok so I think because I did another full system upgrade, this bug has been patched. Thank you all for the support! WiFi is weird.
