Intermittent WiFi loss on Steam Deck
Hi folks 👋
I've been having issues with WiFi connectivity on my Steam Deck since I installed Bazzite. The deck will connect to my home network with 100% signal strength, and then after a short while (usually due to network inactivity) will drop the connection and not re-connect. It feels like something to do with power management, as I've had similar issues in the past on my Arch laptop when TLP manages the power of my network card. I have a WiFi mesh system in my home, so signal strength is not the issue. Also worth mentioning that with SteamOS I never had this problem. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a way to configure the WiFi power management on Bazzite? Thanks in advance, and keep up the great work!
