And yet, it happens...

I have a home network, it allegedly offers an isolated guest WiFi WLAN.
I put things I don't trust on it, such as smart home devices.  I've
dabbled with some smart lighting, putting some mood lighting to come on
at dusk, dim late at night so I don't trip over anything going to the
bathroom, and go off at dawn.  Leaving essential lighting manually
controlled.  And I won't be putting anything I consider hazardous under
cloud control (such as heating).

Sometimes you *can* make connections to them.  Sometime they can make
connections to things on the wired LAN (I don't think that should be
allowed).

My phone, on my full-access WiFi can definitely control the lighting on
the isolated guest WiFi, though I expect that's going through the
cloud.  My phone can sometimes access the Google TV dongle, trialling
it on the isolated guest WiFi, I'm not sure what method that's using.

Yikes.   I just looked that up. 

https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/16751/wireless-client-isolation-how-does-it-work-and-can-it-be-bypassed

https://medium.com/@dd.identity/wireless-guest-network-client-isolation-under-the-hood-d0698333cbcc

Not something I could get around sitting in a hotel room.  The solution
I mentioned about using port 80 for ssh was something I used when I was
at a conference in DC and the host only allowed http/https traffic to
machines outside the building.  I used it to ssh to a machine that was
outside, so it wasn't like this case of trying to get two machines
behind the firewall together...

And if I ever ran into one of those I'd be complaining loud and long and 
challenging their claims to providing "free WiFi."  My laptops still get 
their email via POP3 and send it through SMTP, and blocking those ports 
would prevent me from using their so-called free WiFi.  I'd bet that 
anybody who needed to use a VPN to get work done while on the road would 
soon learn not to use that chain at any time.

For a lot of "public" wifi networks, it's not even a firewall, it's that
the access points are set to client isolation mode (so the AP only
allows clients to talk to the gateway).  It's basically an extra
security layer on their part to keep customer A from causing problems
for customer B.

So then you do need your own access point/router.  On newer Android
devices, you can re-share the wifi with hotspot mode, so don't need any
additional equipment.

I have, in the past, successfully gotten around firewalls that only
allow http/https on tcp by setting the port for ssh to 80,8080,443 or
8443.  I haven't tried it in a few years, though.  I've heard that some
systems can inspect packets well enough to discern ssh on port 80, but
that never happened to me.

If the firewall is blocking 22 specifically and allowing other things
than http/https, then you can change it to anything else.

If the firewall is not blocking 22 to the world, but only between
machines behind the corporate wall, then you might be able to tunnel
packets through a man in the middle offsite.

Finally, make sure it's not just a IPv4 vs IPv6 thing.  I've seen a
couple of routers that are set to IPv6 only.  My laptop is set to use
IPv4 only for ssh, and I had to change that.

It's a small pain, but it's a LOT easier than trying to circumvent

The simpler option is to enable internet sharing on one of them, then 
the IP addresses are handled automatically.

That's a great point, but in my experience, trying to talk to the front

But Bruce is absolutely correct, they may be able to help you out, or

You will almost certainly not be able to connect between devices on a

Virtual Machine USB WIFI adapter

[Robert McBroom via users]

Fedora 38 host with CentOS8 in a virtual machine. Wrestling with 
networking. I would like to use a USB WIFI adapter dedicated to the 
virtual machine. The adapter works from the host. When added to the 
hardware of the virtual machine it is seen by NetworkManager but 
entering the SSID and password does not connect.


Tried restart with the set hardware configuration. NetworkManager shows 
the WIFI connection as "Last Used" never.


~]$ ip a
1: lo:  mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN 
group default qlen 1000

    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
   valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 ::1/128 scope host
   valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: enp3s0:  mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel 
state UP group default qlen 1000

    link/ether 52:54:00:d0:98:95 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: virbr0:  mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue 
state DOWN group default qlen 1000

    link/ether 52:54:00:eb:41:ac brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 192.168.122.1/24 brd 192.168.122.255 scope global virbr0
   valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

A virtual machine with Fedora 38 does not connect either even though the 
host does. There is no problem connecting to the adapter with that other 
operating system in a virtual machine.


Any ideas on getting a WIFI connection on a virtual machine?

Re: problem downloading rpms with wifi

[Bill Cunningham]

I will answer this thread to close it out so if anyone with this problem that 
might refer to this thread, can have an answer or at least, a direction in 
which to go. I reinstalled everything and choose the wifi option and entered my 
wifi password. Then went back to the main screen that gives the options 
including "network" and "storage...". I then gave more time for the server to 
search for the closest mirror and respond with a metadata list. Then the 
response "closest mirror" appeared and remained on the screen. I reinstalled 
and everything seemed to work. So I believe this solved the problem.

You should first check your network connection. In a terminal windows check the 
output of

$ ip a

It should list at least one interface with an ip, something like

2: enp0s31f6:  mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state 
UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether 90:1b:0e:fc:ee:d2 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 78.46.93.154/27 brd 78.46.93.159 scope global noprefixroute enp0s31f6
   valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 2a01:4f8:120:7142::2/128 scope global noprefixroute 
   valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 fe80::921b:eff:fefc:eed2/64 scope link noprefixroute 
   valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

Important is the  ip and the „state UP“


If you have an ip, check your dns, e.g.

$ host fedora project.org

It should respond like

fedoraproject.org has address 152.19.134.142
fedoraproject.org has address 209.132.190.2
fedoraproject.org has address 38.145.60.21
fedoraproject.org has address 185.141.165.254
… 
fedoraproject.org has IPv6 address 2600:2701:4000:5211:dead:beef:fe:fed3
fedoraproject.org has IPv6 address 2a05:d01c:c6a:cc01:269:da52:9ae1:43e6


Then check if your routing works:

$ ping  152.19.134.142 

or, it you are IPV6 only

$ ping6 2600:2701:4000:5211:dead:beef:fe:fed3 


Use c to interrupt the listing.


Given your difficulties, one of the steps above should not work on your system.

/etc/hosts 
Can have domain names, hostnames, and their associated numerical IP
addresses put into it.  You wouldn't put DNS server addresses into it,
but if you knew the IPs for the mirrors that weren't working you could
put them in it.

/etc/resolv.conf
Will hold the DNS server addresses in it that you're currently using,
and you can manually edit it to something else (bearing in mind that
something else will probably change what you put in there, at some
stage).

Your problem *may* not just be unable to resolve the addresses, but try
it anyway.

Your computer needs to have an IP address that can talk to things
outside of its immediate network.  If its address is 127.0.0.1 it can
only talk to itself.  If it's address starts with 169.254 it can only
talk to other PCs on your LAN with similar addresses.  In those cases,
either you need to manually configure your network to use something
else, or figure out why something like your modem/router's DHCP server
is not configuring it for you.

If your computer is directly connected to the internet, it would have a
public IP address.  If it's behind a router, as most are these days,
it'll have an address starting with something like 192.168. or 10.0.0
(using the same scheme that the router, and everything else on your LAN
uses).

Your computer will also need a gateway address, that's the address it
goes through to get to the outside world, the address of your
modem/router.

Assuming you can get to settings (running Gnome?) then just turn off the
automatic settings for DNS and set it manually.

8.8.8.8

problem downloading rpms with wifi

[Bill Cunningham]

I just was able to install the fedora 38 build and I want to use dnf to 
install so more rpms. I get this error and I have no idea where to 
begin. It has to do with wifi networking I know that. using the gui I 
was able to install fine. I booted to cli and get this:

Yep, looks like at least the 88x2bu driver is now. I happened to see it
earlier when I was browsing the trees for something related to my drivers, haha.

Sounds like 6.2 is right around the corner considering Test Week is happening,
so hopefully you won't need to wait too much longer!

You would have to ask the question to Realtec and/or whoever wrote that driver.

Realtec (or whoever wrote the driver) would need to submit the driver
to the linux kernel and get it accepted and added to the linux kernel.
  I don't know why that step has never been done.

I gave up on using my realtec usb device, it was simply too much work
to keep finding the updated driver code for the new kernels.  And you
really never knew on a kernel update if it was going to compile and
work on the new kernel, it seems to break every 2-3 updates.

I eventually replaced the laptop's wifi card (I think it was a
realtec) with one that worked (intel ax200) reliably, and so don't
need the usb one anymore.

I won't ever go with a usb one for any reason unless I can confirm
that usb one is supported in the kernel already (and last time I only
found N300's that had kernel support).

Drivers for Realtec USB wifi adapters

Router's do stuff up, so it's well worth rebooting a router when
networking goes haywire.  I dare say it's possible for a malfunctioning
client to do something that triggers some kind of stuff-up.  Even one
without bugs can get upset by power glitches.  They also have firmware
updates, and it's worth considering installing them.  

They are the thing between you and the internet, and many have security
shortcomings.  If it's an older one, it's also well worth considering
upgrading it and you find out it has security flaws and there's no
updated firmware for it.

Some firmware updates are just a patch that's run at every boot.  Don't
run the patch, and it's still running how it used to before hand.

Other firmware updates replace the firmware on the device.  Switching
back may not be possible.  You'd need a copy of the older firmware, and
you'd need the device to accept installing an older version.  Some
won't.

You could be lucky and have a device with enough RAM that it won't
actually install a replacement, but loads it as a second firmware.  But
I've only heard of that on motherboards.

Many devices have a tiny hole leading to a hidden reset button, that
you have to poke something through to reset them.  I wouldn't recommend
actually using a pin, though.  They can cause damage.

I have a packet of wooden kebab sticks that get used for all sorts of
things that have nothing to do with their original purpose, likewise
with toothpicks and paperclips.

You're lucky that *that* firmware update is just a patch applied each
runtime, then.  If it had been and update that actually reflashed the
device, it'd be a permanent change.

I'm not familiar with pinhole reset.  I waited for battery to drain.  Then
powered up and booted fine!  And the offending firmware is reverted, and my
wifi is working again.

I don't know where to report the problem with the firmware update.

"fwupdmgr get-history" would be helpful in knowing what you updated,
and hopefully the older update is also there -- so "fwupdmgr
downgrade" would restore the old version. Either way, filing an issue
https://github.com/fwupd/firmware-lenovo would allow me to ping the
right person.

Hmm, I'm erring on on a hardware issue. If you do the pinhole reset
does that get things working again?

Re: fwupd broke my wifi on new laptop

[Neal Becker]

Well I performed 2 downgrades.  On the 2nd one it totally hung, saying 100%
done and will reboot.  It won't.  Even holding the power button does
nothing.

Sorry to hear that. I usually find the opposite is true... Newer
machines need the UEFI updates to get wifi working correctly.

I believe you can use fwupdmgr to remove the firmware update. I think
you want `fwupdmgr downgrade [DEVICE]`. I believe you can show the
devices with `fwupdmgr get-devices`. But for the downgrade, you may
get a numbered list, and only need to specify a number.

fwupdmgr is not well documented. The man pages suck, and there's not
much info out there on the web. The best questions/answers seem to
happen in the fwupdmgr bug reporter in GitHub. The next best set of

fwupd broke my wifi on new laptop

[Neal Becker]

Brand new lenovo x1 carbon.

Today the "discover" sw update app suggest fw updates.  I went ahead with
them.  Now wifi isn't working properly.  At boot, I get a hang on
Job NetworkManager-wait-online.service/start running

Then it will finish boot after some time, but only 2.4G wifi works.  It
won't connect to my 5GHz wifi, although it is detected.

I tried an older kernel but got same results.

I just received this laptop yesterday, I suppose I could try to return it.
But is there maybe someway to revert the firmware updates?  Or any other
ideas?

Thanks,
Neal

Just had a kernel upgrade for Linux machines, so updated 
the 4 machines with the USB devices.
1. No wifi after boot since kernel didn't have the driver.
2. changed to directory with build (checked and show it 
was updated 12 days ago, so seems to be active update)
3. Ran 
make -j 8; make install; modprobe 88x2bu
4. All build and install fine, and wifi went active again.

Some of the other links I found had failed to build with 
terminal errors. On actually had a link to ipx.h file, which 
a search found it in older kernel src directory, but was no 
longer in the current one. 

So, seems to require what I expected. 
Recall long ago, had a Linux server at College running 
Redhat 9 I believe. It had 9 ethernet ports. One connected 
to the Colleges 100M backbone that was running 3 Class 
C networks. The other 8 ports connected to 8 different 
classrooms giving each a 100M link to server. Had squid 
running and was getting 40% cache hit ratio. Rest of 
campus had like 900 machines all running directly off 
backbone?? Interesting in labs running windows, 
machines on the different class Cs could see each other 
with windows shares? Wasn't my job, and MIS would or 
didn't care. Every other machine had public IPs. Had 2 
Novell Servers with Public IPs, and Linux Box, and a 
Unixware box. But everything else was private behind 
firewalls. Long ago. Retired now..

So, upgrade only took few minutes to build and install.
Thanks.

Re: Getting Wifi 5 Ghz AC1200Mbs Wireless USB adapter to work on Fedora 35?

[Roger Heflin]

Yes, recompile and reinstall, but every few kernel versions you will likely
need to find updated code.  It makes any out of tree driver a no go unless
the code is being updated.  Each time it broke finding new code required
checking to see it was fixed and if not hopefully finding one that is
fixed.  It was a major hassle.  An in kernel supported pci card would be
much easier and or a real network connection support wise.

First, Thanks for the reply and info.
I'm using these in 4 desktop machines that don't have wifi 
at all.
Found a number of drivers that failed to compile at all, 
but found RTL88x2BU-Linux-Driver-master.zip at 
https://github.com/RinCat/RTL88x2BU-Linux-Driver/branches
and it compiles with no real issues (some warnings pop 
up, but no errors). 
Do the make and then make install then devices are seen.
Did find have to make the device available for all users, 
or it wouldn't activate automatically or have other than 
root be able to connect it. Seems to work fine so far.

Haven't had a kernel upgrade since installing, but would 
be under the impression that a kernel upgrade would 
require a rebuild and reinstall in the new kernel 
directory?? 

Just got a new router that had 5G, but has a different 
public IP than my 2.4G one. 

Thanks again.

5GHz requires more attention to things like radio frequency interference
RFI),
e.g., better shielding and changes to routing of cables .  If the laptop
was never
sold with 5ghz internal wifi, there could be issues such as radio frequency
interference affecting other subsystems.   You might be able to look for
changes
in teardown images to the antenna system if a newer version of the same
model
is offered with internal 5GHz wifi.

Re: Getting Wifi 5 Ghz AC1200Mbs Wireless USB adapter to work on Fedora 35?

[Roger Heflin]

I got one of those working for a while, but it is a disaster to keep working.

Every few kernel versions it stops working and you have to find fixed
code and download and compile it to get it working again.  Then a few
kernels later it happens again.   When it worked it worked better that
the original card in the laptop, but it was time consuming to fixed it
every few kernel updates.

Your best bet is to simply replace the wifi card on the laptop with
one of the newer ones (that is what I did).  Depending on your laptop
that should be possible.  I replaced mine with an intel ax200 card and
it has just worked since I replaced it.   You may have to read the
reviews on the cards to determine if others have used the card in a
laptop like yours.  There are gray market cards on amazon for around
$22.  My laptop is a 2016 model. You will have to do some research
to figure out if a ax200 or newer will plug into your laptop.

Getting Wifi 5 Ghz AC1200Mbs Wireless USB adapter to work on Fedora 35?

[Michael D. Setzer II via users]

Just got a couple of these devices in.

I do not use WiFi, and in Network setting, I do not see an option

The following instructions assume Gnome.

You can't share wifi if you're using it (maybe if you have a second wifi 
interface, I haven't tried that).  If you're using the 4G connection, 
then go to wifi settings and click on the 3 dots in the top-right. 
There is an option in there to turn on the hotspot.

Living a farming region:

There is a use case for work that requires a laptop with cellular data in
outdoors
locations (e.g., technicians repairing farm equipment).  There are times
when a
video conference is needed while laptop is busy running diagnostic tools,
e.g.,
using phone camera to show moving machinery components to the engineers.

Usually it is the other way round.
The mobile connects to the internet and is a wifi hot-spot that you use from 
the laptop.

Why does the mobile need to share the 4G on the laptop?

Hello,

If I have a Laptop conected to Internet via a Wifi connection or a

I did not see this option in the setting.

I don't think changing IPs should be part of your problem, but you can
configure your DHCP server to always give a device the same IP.  I'd
always suggest doing that to things that are permanently part of your
network, leave random allocation to things that only visit.

If your printer/scanner was first discovered by your computer
automatically (as opposed to you having to manually configure
everything), then it ought to do it again.  Perhaps restarting
printer/scanning software might retrigger things.

Thus far, over many years, I'd noticed that printing & scanning
software only seemed to care about device names, not fixed IPs.

Though I'd be quite surprised if you couldn't configure such a HP
printer/scanner to use a fixed IP within its front panel controls.

What else has changed in the meantime?  Was there an update to xsane?

xsane over wifi scanner: invalid argument

[Gianluca Cecchi]

Hello,
I'm on fedora 36 and I'm using an HP Laserjet Pro MFP M130fw, connected
through wifi, both as a printer and a scanner.
It seems that the scanner, via xsane, doesn't work anymore from yesterday.
Unfortunately the printer gets its ip via dhcp and yesterday I had to
reboot it and it changed ip.
I don't know if it can be related.
the scanner is now detected:

$ scanimage -L
device `airscan:e1:HP LaserJet MFP M130fw (3330D5)' is a eSCL HP LaserJet

device `hpaio:/net/HP_LaserJet_MFP_M129-M134?ip=192.168.1.223' is a

a Hewlett-Packard laserjet_mfp_m129-m134 all-in-one

the ip of the first line, that seems to correspond to eSCL, is the correct
one aquired.
when I try to scan I can select eSCL, as usual, but when I try to scan I get

Failed to start scanner: Invalid argument

Any hint?
Thanks,

Thanks Alex, that is what I thought it meant, but what does it
mean when
it says "Device last used 30 minutes ago" on a device that Linux was
unable to detect because Windows Fast Boot had the device locked, and
especially when I had just booted into Linux on a machine that had
been
powered off for 9 hours?


30 minutes + time zone difference of 8 or 9 hours?
Thanks George, it's possible, I just wasn't expecting it to take the 
time zone into account and treat local time as UTC time.

Steve

It means what it says. If you are connected to Wi-Fi, it will display 
last used Now, disconnect and it will instead say last used 1 minute ago.

It usually means the hardware in question is in a bad/locked up state

If the issue is after a suspend/resume then try below:

Other notes indicate this:

Please create the file /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf with content

as some of these issues are suspend/resume issues where it does not

In my case its not as suspend/resume process. I get this issue on a 
cold start of the machine where I boot into directly into 
Fedora/Ubuntu and the wifi device is not activated. If I boot into 
Windows and run Windows for a while then warm boot from Windows into 
Fedora the wifi device is available and wifi activates. What I've 
seen on the net is someone else raising the same issues with Fedora 
34 and the same wifi device, but the support people the person was 
reporting the issue to said they couldn't help him because at the 
time Fedora 34 was out of life.

I'll try the iwlwifi.conf method and see if it makes any difference.
I put the specified command into iwlwifi.conf and it makes not 
difference, the wifi is not available on booting directly into linux.
Just one further question , if connected to ethernet how do you try 
switching to wifi if networkmanager doesn't show any of the wifi 
ssid's so that you can try connecting to them?

Steve

I have found an article on the net that has resolved the issue with the 
wifi device not being available in Linux if I don't boot into Windows 
first. The article specified that "Fast Boot" needs to be disabled in 
the bios, I already had it disabled because of its functionality (if 
active it requires a Windows utility to cause the next boot to boot into 
the bios, which as far as I am aware is not available for Linux), and 
more importantly, "Fast Boot" must be disabled in Windows as well. 
Thankyou to everyone who provided assistance with this issue.

Steve

I've booted directly into Fedora this morning and the wifi is not
working again, its back to the situation of getting probe error -110
without ever trying to load the adapter's firmware.
I've seen another thread on the net where someone else was raising an
issue with the same wifi adapter with Fedora 34, where that person was
saying it seemed to work if he booted into Windows first, and it's now
looking like I'm getting the same issue. I'm assuming this is a kernel

activate the hardware (its not an issue specific to Fedora as I get 
the

same lack of wifi issue under Ubuntu as well)?

Error -110 is timeout, meaning the device did not respond to the commands.

It usually means the hardware in question is in a bad/locked up state

Looking in dmesg, iwlwifi doesn't seem to be loading the firmware for 
the AX200. Looking at /lib/firmware there are a whole bunch of 
iwlwifi- files but none of them appear to be for the AX200. The 
iwlax2xx-firmware package is installed but it doesn't install any 
files in /lib/firmware and seems to be for an Asterisk. Given that 
the wifi was working for a while and loading firmware, how do I 
determine where the firmware has gone?


I don't know how you're seeing a connection to Asterisk, but it 
certainly installs a *lot* of files into /usr/lib/firmware (108 of them).
The package must have been updated as when I looked yesterday it didn't 
supply any of those files, unless I looked at the file list from the 
wrong package. But whatever the issue was wifi is now working and dmesg 
is showing the same messages as it did on 29/6/2022, which is a bit 
disconcerting as potentially it now seems that wifi support is only 
randomly working?

Thanks George. It is a home build and I have the external antenna

No Wifi in F36

[Stephen Morris]

Hi,
    Having upgrade my system now to an Asus Rog Crosshair VIII Dark 
Hero motherboard with 802.11ax wifi which matches my 802.11ax wifi 
router, an Nvidia RTX 3080 graphics card with 12GB of memory, and AMD 
Ryzen 9 5950x 16 core cpu, 64GB of 3600 memory, liquid cooled cpu cooler 
and 1000W power supply I have stopped running my system in raid and 
stopped running Fedora in a VM.
    Having now directly installed Fedora 36 I have both wifi and 
ethernet configured in Networkmanager, with wifi configured to 
autoconnect and ethernet isn't, but when I start up Fedora I have no 
internet access as the only access Fedora sees is ethernet which has to 
be started manually to get internet access, and even after activating 
the ethernet interface Fedora still cannot see any wifi nodes to connect 
to. There isn't any issue with the wifi adapter as I am using that quite 
happily under windows.

    What am I missing in the installation to get wifi available?

upgrade to F36 forgot WiFi passwords

[D. Hugh Redelmeier]

I have several WiFi networks and several notebooks.
Whenever I updated a notebook to Fedora 36, some WiFi passwords needed to 
be re-entered.

I don't remember the exact details.  I think that if I were updating over 
WiFi, that password was retained.

I don't have any remaining updates that I wish to do so I'm not willing to 
put the effort into creating a good bug report.

I understand it's a problem with the kernel.  If you still have
kernel-5.16.14-200.fc35 installed booting with that should avoid the
issue.

The forthcoming kernel-5.16.18-200.fc35 might have the fix.

Cheers,

Ron

wifi connection problem.

[François Patte]

Bonjour,

Every day, after sometimes, my wifi connection is lost with this message 
in the logs:


wpa_supplicant[3076]: wlp6s0: CTRL-EVENT-BEACON-LOSS

I don't know what causes this. It happens since the last upgrade I 
performed on my machine.


To reconnect my wifi, I have to restart the NetworkManager service.

Is it a known bug and what causes this dysfonction?

Thank you.

Bugzilla reports are useful as they will be the first place users check
after encountering problems, but in my experience, upstream devs
may already be aware of the issue and can often provide a patch if
you are willing to install it from source.  For Secure Boot you
may need to create a machine-owner key (MOK).  Instructions are
available.for Fedora 35:

  "I have a witness."

  I've rebooted to an earlier kernel (kernel-5.16.14-200.fc35.x86_64), and
  things seem to be stable, wifi-wise. On the newest kernel
  (kernel-5.16.15-201.fc35.x86_64) things would have become problematic w/in
  a few minutes.

  Am I doing this correctly, or are should other approaches be tried?

I went through the same process.

kernel-5.16.15-201.fc35.x86_64 causes the wifi to drop regularly
kernel-5.16.14-200.fc35.x86_64 works well.

This is with an Atheros wireless chip

The Wi-Fi card on my wife's XPS 13 failed a while back - the behavior
was intermittent dropped connections, poor throughput, etc.  I did
some googling and found multiple reports about a specific wifi card
used in some XPS 13s that was known to get flakey after a while -
sorry, but I don't remember specifics as to the card.

I replaced the wifi card with a new one - an Intel Corporation
Wireless-AC 9260.  No problems since.

Yeah, my router supports that, and I'll add a DHCP reservation for my Fedora 
laptop.

However - I upgraded the firmware on my wireless AP on Monday and I haven't 
seen any wifi drops since then.  So possibly problem solved?  :-)

The frequency shifting shouldn't be a problem.  It really shouldn't even 
be noticeable.  It's strange that your router is giving out different IP 
addresses on the different channels.  If you fix that, you'll be fine.

What router do you have?  Most allow for DHCP reservations which will keep the 
same IP address even when the band
changes.  Or, you can manually set your IP address which is out of the range 
the DHCP server supplies.  This will also
keep the same IP address.

This is what I do, and all my devices (phones, tablets, etc.) move seamlessly 
between bands as they move around our home.
Never a loss of connections.

My router has the ability to disable/enable the low/high frequency 
transceivers individually.  If yours has that capability you could 
consider that.

Re: WiFi reconnecting periodically after upgrade to F35

[Roger Heflin]

It may be that prior it switched down to 2.4ghz it stayed there.  And
that the change is every so often it tries to now go back to the
higher bandwidth one.

I know that on a single router, the 2.4Ghz signal has significantly
better range and is more reliable so any weakness in the 5ghz signal
from obstructions would cause you to switch to the 2.4.

I used to have my wifi randomly drop on 5ghz and not even seem to
reconnect at all to anything (so much I had a script that ping the gw
and if not pingable or really slow restarted the connection but
eventually I just disabled 5ghz to maintain stability), but after
replacing the card with a newer intel AX200 wifi card it got much more
stable and stays on the 5ghz band.

5ghz is tricky especially apparently with the older wifi cards, and it
also seems to be worse depending on how new of technology  the router
has.

So yeah, my AP has both 2.5 GHz and 5 GHz radios, both with the same SSID.  So 
it seems my Fedora laptop is toggling between the two bands.  74:83:c2:03:5e:61 
is the 2.5 GHz and 7a:83:c2:04:5e:61 is the 5 GHz.

I'll provide the journalctl logs later.

I know it sounds counterintuitive, but you might get better performance 
lowering the broadcast power of the physically more distant AP, so the closer 
one is chosen. 

Also, lower the number of wireless clients on the closer AP so there is less 
contention for a spot on the network.

What that looks like is that you have two APs and it's switching 
between them.  Is it getting different IP addresses from each one?




Would you consider a wifi router with 2.4 and 5GHz bands with different 
SSIDs as 2 AP's?


If I configure my wifi router in that manner then the MAC addresses are 
different.  I normally have only one SSID and let the
clients decide which band to connect with.  The switch between bands is 
then seamless.


Given those MAC addresses, that's a quite likely scenario.  The question 
is still why are things getting disconnected and those logs are not 
suitable for answering that question.  It looks like dmesg output, 
journalctl output would be much better.

WiFi reconnecting periodically after upgrade to F35

[Scott Talbert]

Hey all,

After upgrading my machine from F34 to F35, my WiFi interface has started 
periodically losing connection to my AP:

It's an iwlwifi card:
[9.262442] iwlwifi :02:00.0: Detected Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless AC 
8260, REV=0x204

Any ideas where to start debugging this / where to file a bug?  kernel?  
NetworkManager?  Something else involved in wifi these days?  Wifi firmware 
doesn't seem to have changed between F34 and F35, as far as I can see.

The most annoying thing is that I lose my SSH connections each time this 
happens.  :(

Thanks,
Scott
