[solved] wlan0 interface down & bluetooth icon keeps disapearing

Hello.
i can't figure out why the wifi interface decided to no longer work after booting, i've been using this setup with no issue until today, i've also noticed that the bluetooth icon keeps appearing and disapearing on XFCE.

$ systemctl status iwd

Re: [solved] wlan0 interface down & bluetooth icon keeps disapearing

iwd[669]: Error bringing interface 4 up: Operation already in progress

Networkmanager handles wifi so disable iwd or if you want iwd configure NM to use it.

 [ 1818.721746] Bluetooth: hci0: RTL: Failed to generate devcoredump | [ 1818.721753] Bluetooth: hci0: Resetting usb device. 

I guess the kernel is restarting the entire USB device when the bluetooth side crashes or times out , for testing disable bluetooth and see if WIFI stabilizes.

already did by following https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Networ … Fi_backend


The issue seemed to have solved itself after shutting my laptop down for some time then booting it up. I guess its a hardware issue rather than software.

Thanks for the help.
