Wifi lost connection in Game Mode
I found in game mode I got wifi issue where my signal seems less strong and I got disconnected.
I don’t have that issue in desktop mode. Only in game mode.
For info I test on 3 different router in 3 different house with different modem. So I know it’s not my router or my modem. I also test with an external usb wifi antenna.
I found, in game mode, if the router is really really close, I don’t have the issue or it is less frequent. (In desktop just never have it)
The wifi card is: MediaTek MT7925 chipset.
I have a mini PC: Atomman G7 PT.
Thank, and tell me if and how I can provide more info to help.

I use cachyOS to test if wifi was better and it seems to be.
The only difference seems that the CachyOS kernel is more recent.
I would maybe guess that it may be a fix in the kernel related to my wifi card?
On bazzite when I toggle the wifi in game mode, it « fix » it for a moment.
But it isn’t as stable as the desktop mode.
Even in desktop mode, it is slower than what I got on other os, but at least feel a bit more stable.
I just try to turn off that setting and it didn’t change anything.
Well I create a github issue where it could have a bit more info:
