I have to restart my computer about every 30 minutes because the wi-fi drops off. I am new to Ubuntu and not very skilled with the terminal. I did try the first solution at this link 22.04, wifi keeps disconnecting for a few seconds frequently Did not solve the situation and now my computer has to go through several extra steps to turn on. I also set the power save to "off" (i hope) No solution yet I also installed a "patch" for the problem. No luck

Any ideas? PS it is not the wifi itself. My other identical computer is still using windows and wifi is always strong.

Thanks

    This won't help your WiFi, but for your ethernet interface you should install the r8168-dkms driver. sudo apt install r8168-dkms I suggest that because the r8169 driver on a RTL8168 is asking for trouble and is very unpredictable. – Terrance Oct 19 '22 at 01:33
  • Look at the network logs with the terminal command: sudo journalctl -b 0 -u NetworkManager. Read man journalctl. – waltinator Oct 19 '22 at 02:04
  • I used the sudo journal... command above. Just got hundreds of lines of identical text. I don't know what "Read man journalctl" means for me to do. – American Christian Patriot Oct 20 '22 at 23:01
