[SOLVED] Wireless Interface problem.

Hey! Im new to Arch.

My wireless interface keep changing after i reboot or shutdown. For example now it is wlp19s0 after i reboot it will change to wlan0 and if i reboot again it will change to wlp19s0 back and it keep going on and on. It sucks cause i need to change my wicd wireless interface whenever i start my computer. I need help on how to keep the interface name as wlp19s0 and not changing whenever i reboot.

P.S. And some time one of the interface fail to connect to the internet  so i need to reboot my computer so that i can connect to the internet.

SORRY FOR MY BROKEN ENGLISH

This does not solve your main problem, however you do not need to reboot your computer to connect to the internet. Try connecting manually until you manage to solve the problem.
