Summary | 0007723: Wireless Keeps Disconnecting & Reconnecting In A Loop | ||||
Description | Recently, I updated my Kali Linux to the latest version along with the microcodes. Ever since then, the Wifi seems to be dropping. Also, the speed seems to be throttled due to the dropping. However, I checked the adaptor by booting into Windows. It's working fine there. I guess there's no issue with the hardware. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | Simply wait and the wifi keeps dropping automatically. Wifi Info: | ||||
Additional Information | I've attached my log screenshot & the logs with this report. | ||||

Could this be power management related? Could you try running |
|
@steev I tried this command but it's showing me an error. I tried, "sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off" .. & it showed that this operation isn't supported. |
|
Is this an actual nethunter device, or is this a kali installation? |
|
@steev no no .. I just named it nethunter as the name looks cool.. Its actually a Bare Metal installation of Kali. |
|
UPDATE: I tried re-installing Kali ... And the wifi was working fine until I updated again! My current version of Network-Manager is 1.36.4-2. I tried downgrading to a previous version (Bullseye) through the official Debian Package website. Still, I'm having the same issue. But I'm quite sure this is caused after the upgrade. The download speed is extremely throttled. |

Hey, I don't think we can help much, we can't really provide support for hardware issues. But if you have time to keep digging into this issue, here are a few recommendations:
OK so you're on the right track. Now the question is: what packages were upgraded when you "updated again" ? Did you keep track of that? If not, you can have a look into the various files The way you describe the issue, I would bet on either Linux kernel or firmware. I don't think it has anything to do with Network Manager. When you boot, can you choose to boot different versions of the Linux kernel? If so, try booting other kernels, and check if the issue is present only with some versions of the kernel. Otherwise, and as usual, check the logs to see if the issue is visible in there. Open a terminal, run Good luck! |
|
UPDATE: I've successfully resolved the issue. The problem seems to be in the Kernel of Linux. |
|
You could also try to upgrade your Kali, at the moment in Kali rolling the Linux kernel is at version 5.16.18-1kali1. I'd be curious to know if your WiFi works with this version, please give it a try if you have a moment. Thanks! |
|
I've upgraded the kernel and the same problem came back. Not sure whether that's it |
|
That's surprising, as nvidia-modprobe is for the graphics card... I don't really understand what's wrong here. |
|
I don't think I'm the only one facing this issue. |
