This is testing a 2.4GHz connection. While the received signal strength appears to be the same with either kernel, the transmitted signal is much weaker under the 5.4 kernel (as assessed from the wifi access point running OpenWrt): the 5.4 kernel yields ~10-20 lower dBm than the 5.3 kernel. This greatly reduces the usable wifi range. To summarize testing: 5.3.0-28-generic (Booting off a 18.04.4 live USB) shows good signal. 5.4.0-39-generic (latest supported on 20.04) is problematic 5.6.0-1011-oem (installed from standard repos) is problematic mainline kernel 5.8.0-050800-generic shows good signal. Ideas to further narrow down this regression?
