Wi-fi disables completely after playing certain games on steam
Wi-fi disables completely after playing certain games on steam
The problem is this, when i'm playing these two games in particular, after 15 or 20 minutes the wi-fi completely disappear, no wi-fis being displayed and if i try to turn off and back on it freezes until i wait a couple of seconds for it to unfreeze. The heck is this? I'm using kde manjaro
Use
lsmodto show me all loaded kernel modules. Additionally you could dump the journalctl.With
journalctl --list-bootsyou can see all boots with the number on the left and usejournalctl -b 1to see the journal of that.To dump the journal into a file use
journalctl -b 1 > myJournalLog.txtWhat
I want to get more informarion about the problem. Just saying what the symptom is, won't magically make someone be able to answer your problem, except, someone with the exact symptoms knows the solution and already made experience.
All you need to do is open up any Terminal (open the application "gnome-terminal", "konsole" or pressing CTRL+ALT+F2 or any other F button with CTRL+ALt makes you switch to a TTY which is also a terminal) and type in the commands I gave you, I always marked them in a code-block. The only thing you need to do is send the result of them as a reply here.
Write
lsmodand send its output as a reply here. This command shows me all loaded kernel modules which helps me identify which wifi driver is loaded.journalctlcould help find more details but may be unncessary, also its harder to reply with a journalctl log so don't do this if you don't want to.I also need to know which Wifi device you have (I forgot to ask this). I guess typing in
lspciand sending that result as a reply should be enough. If you're using a Wifi dongle then typelsusbinstead. lspci shows you all PCI devices attached to your mainboard while lsusb shows all USB devices attached to your PC. Alternatively you could name the Wifi Device if you already know what you have.
