Recently built a new computer, a fresh arch install, and everything seemed fine until. I found that the network will briefly disconnect from the router and reconnect like nothing has happened. However this will still boot me out of any game or have a web page stall for less than a few seconds.
The network connection is solid, the router is on the other side of the wall. my old rig was in the room until recently and is now in the living room 10 extra feet away works without any problems. They have matching network cards, and the only differences with the OS are when it was installed. No dual boot. Networkmanager, wpa_supplicant, KDE, and arch-lts newest version.
I check to see if it were a random duplicate network manager installed. I also tried iwd with network manager. tried disabling NM and using only iwd turned into a disconnect reconnect loop. Something is weird but i can't seem to find anything online to help with this.
I can't quite figure this one out, the resources online are minimal. It'll be the first time i've needed to use the forum.

checking some of the options for modprobe gives me as follows.
cat /usr/lib/modprobe.d/70-rtw89.conf
options rtw89_pci disable_aspm_l1=y disable_aspm_l1ss=y
options rtw89_core disable_ps_mode=ypower saving mode because of the constant limiting message but that could really mean nothing and the others as a last effort from the rtw89 readme https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89

You're romaing between two APs, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Networ … ts_(Wi-Fi)
BSSIDs are c0:89:ab:54:28:58 and c0:89:ab:54:28:53 - the journal should also have wpa_supplicant messages reg. their signal strength.
Generally 5GHz is better on short and 2.4GHz better on long ranges.
You can also influence the decision, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Wpa_supplicant#Roaming
Online
seth you are right. I noticed the change in mac but i wasn't sure if that was normal. it's the same SSID but the frequency changes. I'm flip flopping between the two.

You initally had a good signal from the 5GHz AP, then completely lose it and head over to the 2.4GHz AP which ha a rather poor signal.
Are you moving around?
How far are you from the AP and are there any walls inbetween?
Any dynamic interference (other radio emitters, cars running through your living room …)?

There is a wall in between the computer in question and the router. It's about 10 feet from the router. if i look in a straight line to it we have a fan a whiteboard on the wall and then through the wall is a desk where it sits. The desk has an Ethernet connected pc. We usually will have a Bluetooth headset running on this pc while in use but it was one of the first things i tried, disconnects with or without the device on. In the opposite direction towards the living room is my other pc which is older but same OS and wifi card. next to it is the wifi extender 20 feet maybe alittle more away.
The behavior seems to be connecting to the 5ghz AP then losing it, going to the 2.4ghz AP. after it re-scans it returns to the 5ghz AP because of the better signal strength then drops again. looking at the wpa only connection it still drops the 5ghz one but then doesn't have anything to fall back to and just scans until the ignore list times out.
maybe the 5ghz connection is faulty on our router.
testing to see if it happens when only using the 2.4ghz seems to work and is a work around for the rig, slightly less strength looks fine.

a whiteboard on the wall
Do magnets stick to it?
between the computer in question and the router
Ftr, the "computer" is a tower or a notebook?
In case of a tower: did you simply forget to attach an external antenna to the wifi so that the signal has to cross the case?
In case of a notebook, try to move it to the AP to see whether it's "just" the signal weakness (which however is likely)

Do magnets stick to it?
yes it does, looking at it made me think it could be a problem.
the computer is a tower, and i wouldn't forget about putting on the antenna which i plan to move as close and out of the way of the white board as i can get it.
