<Solved>Wi-fi keeps disconnecting
Hello, my Wi-Fi keeps disconnecting. I think it's due to an interference between my USB Dual Band dongle and my network card. I can't connect through my network card, so I have to use the USB adapter. My laptops brand is Dell Latitude E6410. I have the latest kernel and BIOS version installed. Those are my specs: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/anon ... 42553d06/- --- What I did so far is to set the BSSID, disable IPv6, set Power Management from 3 to 2 and set the router to an optimal channel.

Re: Wi-fi keeps disconnecting
I had done this shortly after I installed Mint, it doesn't work. I had it set from 3 to 2(Power Management) https://pastebin.com/raw/2PpQhvT2 --- Is there a way to disable my laptop's wireless card, so this interference between my USB WiFi adapter and the card can stop? I can't connect to my WiFi network through the wireless card, so it's kind of useless.JeremyB wrote:I would disable wifi power management withCode: Select all

You blacklisted the module for the internal wifi four times
Reboot
Code: Select all

Re: Wi-fi keeps disconnecting
After applying the code from your post, I stopped getting disconnected.
