[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1877553] Re: wifi gets automatically disabled when screen is locked and can be enabled only after a reboot.
I am talking about a physical switch or key on the laptop. That shouldn't be possible to automatically revert. Tap the wifi key on the laptop and then the toggle switch in gnome-shell should work. Even if it doesn't, when 'rfkill' shows 'HARD' = 'blocked' then that's a hardware problem and we can't solve it in gnome-shell. Although it *might* be a kernel bug after that. More likely you just need to press the wifi key on your keyboard and then also turn it on inside gnome-shell. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1877553 Title: wifi gets automatically disabled when screen is locked and can be enabled only after a reboot.

The toggle switch isn't working too, it automatically reverts back to disabled mode if you try to enable it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1877553 Title: wifi gets automatically disabled when screen is locked and can be enabled only after a reboot.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1877553] Re: wifi gets automatically disabled when screen is locked and can be enabled only after a reboot.
Thanks. Comment #5 shows the wifi is disabled in hardware ("blocked") and not in software. So it's not a gnome-shell bug. Hopefully the laptop has a wifi switch or key combo you can use to toggle that. ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1877553 Title: wifi gets automatically disabled when screen is locked and can be enabled only after a reboot.

Please: 1. Ensure you do not have 'tlp' installed. 2. Run 'rfkill' both before and after the problem occurs.
