Ubuntu 22.04 - Wifi Manager

us flag

I'm having several problems with the Wifi connection and management of Ubuntu.

  1. In the settings pane under Wi-Fi I can't connect to any other Wifi than "Die Anstalt". When I click any other Wifi, nothing happens and it tries to connect with "Die Anstalt" again (even if I didn't check "Connect automatically").

  2. The Wifi is very unstable in general, it constantly disconnects after some time and then tries to reconnect but asks me for the Wifi password. I've read that this was an issue in the kernel version 5.15, but I'm using version 5.19.

I've looked this up and there are some solutions to it, but none of them seems to work for me as the issue persists.

What I've tried so far:

  • Changing the value of /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf (tried other values, the standard was "2")
  • Reinstalling the network manager (sudo apt-get reinstall network-manager)
  • Reloading the wireless module (sudo modprobe -r rtlwifi && sleep 5s && sudo modprobe -a rtlwifi)

Alas, nothing seem to work in the long run, the issue persists.

I sit in a Tesla and translated this thread with Ai:

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.
