Kadaitcha Man,

Thanks for the assist on this.

My wifi has been horrible too after updates on Monday. It sometimes works, it's sometimes super slow, it sometimes does not work at all.

I wonder if it's my kernal too, although mine is slightly different.

I updated mine through Terminal, I don't know if that makes any difference.

Code: Select all

System:
  Host: owenpeery-mint-desktop Kernel: 5.3.0-42-generic x86_64 bits: 64 
  compiler: gcc v: 7.4.0 Desktop: Cinnamon 4.4.8 
  Distro: Linux Mint 19.3 Tricia base: Ubuntu 18.04 bionic

Should I go back 1 kernel too?

It won't hurt to try a different kernel, but that may or may not be your problem.

I just reverted to the kernel I was using before and I can finally login to my school district google accounts. Wifi is still slow, but more services are working. This worked for now, but I wonder what the bigger problem is? I may start a new topic because with all schools in California shut down and transitioning to distance learning, I can't have slow or non-existent wifi.

Ok, best start a new topic & post your system info there for best help.

Hi, I have the same problem. I think after update my wifi stopped working and I have no idea how to fix it.
It seems that linux mint doesn't see the driver for wi-fi card.
