WiFi loss upon resume?
by pghvlaans from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5P1SE)
Since the latest round of upgrades (Tue Aug 31 20:58:13 UTC 2021), my laptop (Intel wireless controller AX200) has been losing connectivity after closing the lid and re-opening. It's been running -current since January, and I haven't seen this issue before.
Basically, after opening the lid, a process called "dhcpcd [Network Proxy]" didn't reappear, and all subsequent pings returned "temporary name resolution failure." This happened both under X and in tty.
I tried a number of things, including a firmware rollback, using the standard kernel and rebuilding dhcpcd, but the only working solution was to remove the dhcpcd user and group. Now the connection seems to be behaving normally. Has anyone else had this issue since the etc package upgrade?
