[rtl8723be] loosing wifi connection and can't reconnect (using nm)

hi.
It was working fine for month. I was letting my netbook running for days long, wifi connection on. Never got a problem

Now the connection is lost after some time (19 hours this time) and never reconnects. Even doing it manually does not make it work better.
I got something like this in the log:

So I don't know if it's a problem with a networkmanager update or the wifi driver.
I am using the drivers straight from https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git repo. Specifically using rtl8723be driver on a RTL8723BE PCIe Wireless Network Adapter card.

I have to reboot to get back my wifi connection. Quite a shame.

May be trying to bring down and up the interface would be enough. Just thought about that. but that's not a fix.

Another idea: or may be it's because of openwrt/LEDE that I am now using on the AP ??

[loop]

It does not seem to be a problem coming from the AP.

It times out on both side ? wtf ?
NetworkManager times out and openwrt on AP deauth the client because it got no response ??

Does the fact that my SSID has space in it can cause a problem ?

Re: [rtl8723be] loosing wifi connection and can't reconnect (using nm)

Pass rtl8723be some options:

swenc=1 ips=0 swlps=0 fwlps=0 aspm=0

If this doesn't help, also try

ant_sel=1

or

ant_sel=2

Re: [rtl8723be] loosing wifi connection and can't reconnect (using nm)

Thanks for the help @Seth but I don't think this is gonna help.

I already had

fwlps=0 ant_sel=2

. I am gonna add

ips=0

. One will see. One never knows.

Notably hw ecryption is notorious for random communication failures, so ensure to try swenc and also disable aspm, since power saving could very well be an issue here.

Re: [rtl8723be] loosing wifi connection and can't reconnect (using nm)

Ok. I will make another try with swenc option.

But as per the documentation, there is no aspm option https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new … be-options
Do you mean swlps ?

I'll be back in a few days.

In order to make sure that is the driver and not your setup, I would also suggest to try it a few days without using any network manager at all.

dhcpcd is what you want here, setup a wpa_supplicant hook and you're good to go.

Re: [rtl8723be] loosing wifi connection and can't reconnect (using nm)

This didn't changed much.

Moreover the reconnexion problem, I can't even switch AP or change passphrase of an AP, without a reboot now !

I have opened an issue at rtlwifi_new repo, because it seems related to a recent fix.
Stack trace have disapeared in the log about rtl8723be but I suspect that fix to be the cause of that issue I have now.

Not tried the dhcpcd solution yet.

Use openresolv. This solves my problem.
