[SOLVED] Wi-FI on Intel 8265/8275 not working

Post by adrozd »

I see that I'm not the first one with Wi-Fi issues on this card. Mine stopped working a few weeks after installation, though, not soon after.

Below is a link to JeremyB's wireless info script. Please help me out!

See if it works with wifi power management enabled

Code: Select all

sudo sed -i 's/wifi.powersave = 3/wifi.powersave = 2/' /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf
systemctl restart network-manager.service

Thank you for investigating JeremyB.

Before running those commands, I remembered to try another channel on the WiFi. This whole time I was on the 5Ghz channel, and when I switched to the 2.4Ghz channel, it works! *facepalm for not checking earlier*

It seems like it's an issue with my router if WiFi works on 2.4Ghz.

Don't forget to check other channels, folks!
