--- Begin Message ---Package: linux-image-5.9.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 Version: 5.9.6-1~bpo10+1 Wireless card was not behaving normally after upgrading to kernel 5.9 from the backports (slow speeds, possibly repeatitive scannings). I had to blacklist the two following modules (second module possibly optional). dpkg -S /lib/modules/5.9.0-0.bpo.2-amd64/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw88/rtw88_8821ce.ko linux-image-5.9.0-0.bpo.2-amd64: /lib/modules/5.9.0-0.bpo.2-amd64/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw88/rtw88_8821ce.ko dpkg -S /lib/modules/5.9.0-0.bpo.2-amd64/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/ideapad-laptop.ko linux-image-5.9.0-0.bpo.2-amd64: /lib/modules/5.9.0-0.bpo.2-amd64/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/ideapad-laptop.ko Then I installed this driver: https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce After installing the above driver manually, the wireless card behaves normally.
