[SOLVED]WiFi repeatedly connecting and disconnecting after upgrade

PonJar · 2026-01-01 16:01:24

Around Christmas I did a full system upgrade, reboot and immediately experienced the WiFi dropping in and out every 45 seconds. I get the same behavior with the current linux kernel and the LTS kernel. This laptop has run Arch perfectly for at least 6 years. After several hours of researching I have failed to find a solution. The WiFi adapter is an Atheros QCA9565 / AR9565 with the ath9k driver.

The output of journalctl for the Network Manager gives the following:

The laptop is set up to dual boot with Windows 10 where the WiFi continues to work fine.

Any suggestions for a possible solution would be much appreciated

dropping in and out every 45 seconds

That's the dhcp timeout, please post the output of

find /etc/systemd -type l -exec test -f {} \; -print | awk -F'/' '{ printf ("%-40s | %s\n", $(NF-0), $(NF-1)) }' | sort -f

If it's not concurrent services, please post your complete system journal for the boot:

sudo journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

If the device drops out or so you're not gonna see that when filtering for random userspace processes.

Ceterum censeo:

3rd link below. Mandatory.
Disable it (it's NOT the BIOS setting!) and reboot windows and linux twice for voodo reasons.

I'm not sure what you mean by concurrent services. I can provide the complete system journal tomorrow if it will help.

I have not had Windows fast start enabled for many years.

Thanks again

I'm not sure what you mean by concurrent services.

NetworkManager.service                   | multi-user.target.wants
wpa_supplicant.service                   | multi-user.target.wants

Stop and disable wpa_supplicant.service
If this is not it, test w/o firewall and VPN

What is dbus-fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1.service ?
https://github.com/katurov/RTL8188EUSon … t1.service

Please post your complete system journal for the boot:

sudo journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

Unrelated but likewise

pipewire-media-session.service           | pipewire.service.wants
pipewire-session-manager.service         | user
pipewire.socket                          | sockets.target.wants

pulseaudio.socket                        | sockets.target.wants

Replace pulseaudio w/ pipewire-pulse and it's heavily suggested to use wireplumber instead of the deprecated PMS

I have tried stopping and disabling wpa_supplicant, then rebooting. It made no difference. However I did discover that turning on the WiFi starts wpa_supplicant even if it is disabled. So wpa_supplicant is in play whenever WiFi is turned on. I am using KDE and turned on the WiFi from a system tray widget.

Similarly stopping the firewall and the vpn made no difference. I also tried connecting to a phone hotspot and get the same connect/disconnect behavior.

I do not know what the dbus-fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1.service is. I do not recall installing it and do not think I need it based on the link you provided. It disabled with wpa_supplicant and does not start again when the WiFi is turned on.

I have not managed to get 0x0.st to work. Perhaps their server is down. I will try again later.

As I understand it I do not need both wpa_supplicant and NetworkManager for the WiFi to work. I think when I first installed Arch that I did not use NetworkManager so I and thinking of uninstalling both and then setting up NetworkManager from scratch. Is that a good idea?

seth · 2026-01-02 20:25:32

However I did discover that turning on the WiFi starts wpa_supplicant even if it is disabled.

Networkmanager is running it which is why you're not supposed to run a parallel service.

I have not managed to get 0x0.st to work. Perhaps their server is down.

Or your network woes?
Upload the journal somehow, somewhere.

Is that a good idea?

It's gonna be idempotent at best and at worst you're creating a moving target.
Let's first have a look at the journal to see what's going on there.

PonJar · 2026-01-02 21:48:42

Seems my ISP was blocking 0x0.st.

My journal output should be here:

Some range extender? Are you moving around?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Networ … ts_(Wi-Fi)
Try to connect to one BSSID (MAC) specifically, the signal on 0a:5f:67:4d:8c:8c looks good.

I have a TP-link mesh router arrangement with 3 mesh devices around the home, which may explain it. I also used this laptop at a holiday home a few months back and have connected to my iPhone hotspot occasionally

The mesh network has been in place for a few years. The laptop may remember the previous router, the install has been in place for about 6 years. This problem only arose following a full system update about 3 weeks ago. I generally update every couple of weeks so I strongly suspect some issue arising from the update. Nothing else has changed. I don’t know how to force it to use a particular MAC address (mesh router)

seth · 2026-01-03 13:06:20

You can enter the BSSID in the connection profile instead of the SSID ("0a:5f:67:4d:8c:8c" instead of "99PinkGins")

strongly suspect some issue arising from the update

Do you still have a journal from before the update ("sudo journalctl -b -δ", increase the δ to access older journals)?
Do you get the same behavior w/ the LTS kernel?

You can configure the roaming parameters, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Wpa_supplicant#Roaming but afaict this isn't exposed from NM for the wpa_supplicant config it writes.

PonJar · 2026-01-04 08:38:30

Using the BSSID has not changed behavior.

I was able to output a journal for a boot on 22nd December. I think it is old enough. It doesn't seem to contain the same wpa_supplicant lines that you quoted from the recent journal.

http://0x0.st/PoAR.txt

I get the same behavior using the LTS kernel

I do have Timeshift on this laptop so in theory could go back to early December. However the last time I rolled back it failed and messed up badly. Previously it worked fine. It took quite a while to fix so I would probably want to clone the current state of the partitions before trying that. I appreciate that is not a fix but I might learn something from doing that which could lead to a fix.

ie when you're shutting down the system.

Do you encounter the problem w/o ufw and tailscaled?

PonJar · 2026-01-04 13:33:18

I have previously tried it without ufw and tailscaled, the issue remained.

I have looked at the boot immediately after the one I posted earlier. That one does contain all the wpa_supplicant lines that you quoted from the recent journal.

I have also looked at my pacman log. That shows that I did a full system update starting at about 2025-12-22T15:53. That is during the session that did not experience WiFi problems but all subsequent sessions do have WiFi problems. I have linked to the relevant part of the pacman log below. Obviously it contains a list o potential packages that have created this WiFi problem.

http://0x0.st/PoMM.txt

Any suggestions about where to look from here? My first thought was something new in a pacnew file but I always run pacdiff and merge accordingly. I remember the fortran.conf file coming up so I am sure I dealt with it.

seth · 2026-01-04 14:23:40

linux, linux-lts, NM and tailscale are all in that update.
Either it's a kernel but that was picked up in the LTS kernel or it's NM or tailscale or this is entirely unrelated and environmental.
I'll point out that the last journal you posted shows no signs of any reconnects.

What are the actual symptoms of the reconnection?
Do you lose the lease in "Ip a"?

PonJar · 2026-01-04 18:43:56

My initial thought when it first happened immediately after the update was to wait a week and see if the next update fixes it. I suspected Network Manager. The following proves it coincides with the system update on 22nd Dec.

To clarify the journals:

What I currently see as Journal -38 starts at Dec 22 16:00:53 and ends at Dec 22 16:45:47. I think boot was earlier but the log is on the edge of truncation. This boot does not show lots of wpa_supplicant entries. I posted this Journal above and repeat it here. https://0x0.st/PoAR.txt

Journal -37 starts at Dec 22 16:45:56 and ends at Dec 22 17:10:39. It starts 9 seconds after the previous boot so must have been a reboot. This boot does show lots of wpa_supplicant entries similar to the current issue. I mentioned this journal but have not previously posted it. Here it is: http://0x0.st/PoQf.txt

pacman started at Dec 22 15:53:31 and ended at Dec 22 16:05:52, so within the scope of Journal -38.

Symptoms: Internet pages dont load. KDE produces a series of popup notifications: Connection Activated > Connection Deactivated > Authorisation supplicant Timed out. After a while it asks for the network password. Seems like it does this on the 2nd and 4th times around the loop.

I don't know what you mean by "the lease". This is what I get after I turn on the WiFi

You still have a lease (192.168.68.66) but notably no carrier.

Reason 4 is "Disassociated due to inactivity"

Why are you connected via enp1s0f0 and wlan0 to the same segment?
The "normal" NM behavior is to fallover, ie. use the wired connection and resort to wifi when you yank the cable and it looks like you're attempting to use the at the same time but not via proper https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Wireless_bonding ?

Is the wifi stable when you remove the wired network?

PonJar · 2026-01-04 22:13:29

My routers are configured to reserve 192.168.68.66 for this laptop. I think I set this once to simplify the transfer of data between desktop and laptop

I have had the wired connection plugged in while trying to research the issue online and turned the wifi on from time to time to capture log / journal entries. Removing the wired connection does not lead to stable wifi.

Based on your "Disassociated due to inactivity" observation I have tried pinging my server with only the wifi on. This does not change anything significantly. The pings occur about once a second, produce replies for a while then the looping kicks in, and then perhaps 10 "Destination Host Unreachable" messages before the replies start again.

seth · 2026-01-04 22:23:21

Please produce a clean journal covering the incident:
1. not connected to the ethernet
2. disable ufw or at least the logging
3. note the time (one timestamp) when you lost the route

We need to determine what layer is actually breaking here.

PonJar · 2026-01-05 13:32:45

As requested journal is linked below.

http://0x0.st/PoW9.txt

This is what I did and observed.

Prerequisite:
Wired Ethernet not physically connected
WiFi turned off in KDE applet before previous shutdown
ufw disabled
tailscaled disabled

Actions and observations:
Pressed power on at 12:30:00
Logged in at 12:30:24
Reached KDE desktop at 12:30:32
Waited until 12:33:04, then turned on WiFi in KDE applet
Connection Activated desktop notification at 12:33:48
Connection Deactivated desktop notification at 12:34:21
Authorsation supplicant timed out desktop notification at 12:34:21
Connection Activated desktop notification at 12:34:50
Connection Deactivated desktop notification at 12:35:20
Authorsation supplicant timed out desktop notification at 12:35:20
Connection Acivated desktop notification at 12:35:50
Connection Deactivated desktop notification at 12:36:20
Authorsation supplicant timed out desktop notification at 12:36:20
WiFi turned off in KDE applet at 12:38:00
rebooted at 12:39:00
Extracted journal for b-1 shortly after

Despite tailscaled being disabled there are a number of journal entries complaining that it is disabled.
I think the desktop notifications were observed several seconds after the corresponding journal entries

You connect, then there's some tailscale errors, then a beacon loss, then you reconnect.
There're no signal quality reports (the connection doesn't exist for long enough) but

The association either completely fails or works right away (what might just be due the association spam getting rate controlled by the AP)

resp. since it's also among the critical updates, downgrade or remove tailscale and see whether that stabilizes the connection (so we can know whether it's the trigger and where we need to focus)

PonJar · 2026-01-05 17:28:03

I have removed tailscale ( pacman -Rns tailscale) and I repeated the process followed above (but without recording the exact times)

So exact same pattern… you connect, 15s later lose the beacon and that's it.
The interval is too deterministic…

and that's pretty much all from the chip…
The system btw. has no ASPM support, try to explicitly disable power saving and HW encryption.

ath9k.ps_enable=0 ath9k.nohwcryp=1

There doesn't seem to be any BT device but the Logitech Wireless stuff is emitting on the same band, if it's not the chips power saving and the behavior stays the same w/ LTS and (downgrading to) 6.17.9 kernel, try to substitute that w/ a wired one.
"ath9k.debug=0x4f03" should™ enable debugging and will likely massively blow up the journal - not sure whether it can tell us anything.

PonJar · 2026-01-05 22:09:53

I applied the ps_enable and nohwcrypt parameters but they did not stop the problem.

I do use a wireless Logitech mouse on this system. Same one for many years. That must be the BT device. I tried removing the BT dongle and re-booting but nothing changed.

My kernels are 6.18.2-arch2-1 and 6.12.63-1- lts. Are you suggesting that I try downgrading to 6.17.9 ? I don’t understand why that is worth trying but I am open to trying it if you really think it’s worth a try.

I was thinking about getting a new WiFi dongle and see if that works

I do appreciate your time and suggestions.

seth · 2026-01-05 23:12:49

I don’t understand why that is worth trying but I am open to trying it if you really think it’s worth a try.

If there's a regression it might have been backported into the latest LTS kernel - this frankly happens way too often in the past two or three years and I'd suggest to take one kernel out of the regular update cycle and only upgrade it manually after assessing the quality of the other kernels update.

I was thinking about getting a new WiFi dongle and see if that works

Hold on, this is a dongle, not a PCI device?
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_ … utosuspend
"usbcore.autosuspend=-1" will deactivate that globally but be aware that userspace tools like TLP can and will alter that at runtime and you've to configure the behavior there (as well)

PonJar · 2026-01-06 08:42:25

Right, I will try the earlier kernel. That makes sense now. Will let you know how I get on

The device giving problems is internal and original to the laptop. It is not a dongle. The dongle suggestion was just to see if the problem is limited to the original hardware
