After a recent update, my machine rebooted and appeared to be fine, but after a short time the WiFi dropped and the NetworkManager applet shows that the interface is down. I am also getting prompted for a password (which was previously saved) and when I click on connect it will establish the connection for a short time, but then goes down again. In some cases this is immediate in others, I will be online for up to approximately 15 minutes before it goes down again. I have tried restarting NetworkManager, but I get the same results (short time up, then down). I tried to review log data, but I am not a linux expert and so I'm not sure that I am looking at the right log, nor do I know exactly what to look for. Here are some lines from around the time of the disconnect and the restarting of NetworkManager: ' Dec 01 21:13:24 bryan-HP-Notebook NetworkManager[22616]: <info> [1606875204.3541] dhcp4 (wlo1): state changed unknown -> bound Dec 01 21:13:24 bryan-HP-Notebook NetworkManager[22616]: <info> [1606875204.3698] device (wlo1): state change: ip-config -> ip-check (reason 'none', sys-iface-state: 'managed') Dec 01 21:13:24 bryan-HP-Notebook NetworkManager[22616]: <info> [1606875204.3772] device (wlo1): state change: ip-check -> secondaries (reason 'none', sys-iface-state: 'managed') Dec 01 21:13:24 bryan-HP-Notebook NetworkManager[22616]: <info> [1606875204.3856] device (wlo1): state change: secondaries -> activated (reason 'none', sys-iface-state: 'managed') Dec 01 21:13:24 bryan-HP-Notebook NetworkManager[22616]: <info> [1606875204.3882] manager: NetworkManager state is now CONNECTED_SITE Dec 01 21:13:24 bryan-HP-Notebook NetworkManager[22616]: <info> [1606875204.3945] device (wlo1): Activation: successful, device activated.

Are there other items I should look at besides NetworkManager as a cause? Any help is certainly appreciated. ps. The wired network still functions flawlessly so I am not sure that this has anything to do with NetworkManager at all. Cheers!
