I found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1970965 looking into a similar issue described here and I'm still having this same "CTRL-EVENT-BEACON-LOSS frequent reconnect" problem with wifi adapter after upgrading to jammy even tho my iwlist scan always shows strong signal (Quality=50/70 Signal level=-60 dBm).
I have an ibm thinkpad: clayg@banana:~$ sudo lspci | grep -i wireless 04:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 8265 / 8275 (rev 88) According to the other thread I tried going to a *newer* generic kernel and I'm still having problems: root@banana:~# uname -a Linux banana 5.17.11-051711-generic #202205251331 SMP PREEMPT Wed May 25 13:57:33 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Based on this thread I'll try going down to 5.15.0-23-generic (since I think I *was* running 5.15.0-46-generic originally after upgrade?) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1968391 Title: Unreliable wifi with loads of CTRL-EVENT-BEACON-LOSS Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Using the current beta of Jammy, I no longer have stable WiFi after April 5, 2022 update of wpasupplicant from 2:2.10-2 to 2:2.10-6. There is a chance it may also be related to network-manager going from 1.36.4-1ubuntu1 to 1.36.4-2ubuntu1, but the logs seems to point to wpasupplicant (see below) Wifi is stable often, but also often it fails to load webpages intermittently or fails to download the packages using apt for example, so it's not browser related.
