wlan0 sudden flood

[scarface]

Hello,
this thing happens to me everytime I open multiple cards in firefox/chrome and in each I ask for a webpage (cca 3 and more cards). I open new card, put some webpage, then instantly open another card, open another webpage and then another one and bam, my browser keeps querying webpages forever, each card is blank. If I put `ping 8.8.8.8` into console, I get 20%+ packet loss and rtt time is like 12k ms.

Can you help me somehow please?

a. Please generate an overview of your system like this:
- Launch a terminal window (this is how to launch a terminal window);
- make the terminal window full screen, to avoid chopped lines;
- Copy/paste this command into the terminal:

Code: Select all

inxi -Fxz

(if you type: the letter F is a capital letter)

Press Enter.

Copy/paste the output in your next message.

b. Do the same with the following three commands:

Code: Select all

rfkill list all

and:

Code: Select all

iwconfig

and:

Code: Select all

inxi -Nn

Try this:

Update Manager - panel: View - Linux kernels

Install the latest kernel from the 4.4 series. Then reboot.

Edit: Till this moments it is okay. Will see later.

[scarface]

Okay, so the problem is still not fixed.

[scarface]

Can you help me guys, please?

[scarface]

Anybody have a clue what is going on in this problem?

[Pjotr]

Give Mint 18.2 a try. Preferably by means of a clean installation.
