Wireless connection is lost rapidly

pg flag

I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 with systemd-networkd and netplan for managing my network.

My connection to the wifi gets lost frequently and reconnects after a while.

None of the solutions I found on the internet, worked for me.

What version of Ubuntu are you using?

pg flag
22.04 as I mentioned in the first line

Many non Ubuntu products use the 22.04 as well hence my question.

I added the output of ``cat /etc/lsb-release``

Part of why I asked is I do not recognize the kernel. Linux a-b-b 5.15.0-50-generic

I already tested them with no luck.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
