Hello Everyone: I have an Acer Nitro with AX203 & Asus Vivobook also with the AX203. Both are running FreeBSD14.3p2 along with Win11 (the Nitro also OpenBSD) with Intel CPUs. The issue is that iwlwifi sometimes comes up and connects and other times does not. It appears sensitive to the AP it's connecting to but I am not certain. The only way I can clear this issue is by a power cycle. I observe different behavior at home, office, or when on travel connecting to random APs. There is no problem with wifi when running Win11 on this hardware. Here at home tonight I had a stable connection, rebooted (no changes), and was met with error messages on the console and a continuous stream in /var/log/messages. The laptop is next to the AP. If anyone has suggestions I would really appreciate it. Thank you. I saved a dmesg verbose, ifconfig -v wlan0 if that would be helpful. Here is a snip of the dmesg error messages after reboot: iwlwifi0: No beacon heard and the session protection is over already... iwlwifi0: linuxkpi_ieee80211_connection_loss: vif 0xfffffe0177eaeec0 vap 0xfffffe0177eae010 state RUN wlan0: link state changed to DOWN wlan0: link state changed to UP iwlwifi0: No beacon heard and the session protection is over already... iwlwifi0: linuxkpi_ieee80211_connection_loss: vif 0xfffffe0177eaeec0 vap 0xfffffe0177eae010 state RUN wlan0: link state changed to DOWN wlan0: link state changed to UP iwlwifi0: No beacon heard and the session protection is over already... iwlwifi0: linuxkpi_ieee80211_connection_loss: vif 0xfffffe0177eaeec0 vap 0xfffffe0177eae010 state RUN wlan0: link state changed to DOWN wlan0: link state changed to UP iwlwifi0: No beacon heard and the session protection is over already... iwlwifi0: linuxkpi_ieee80211_connection_loss: vif 0xfffffe0177eaeec0 vap 0xfffffe0177eae010 state RUN wlan0: link state changed to DOWN wlan0: link state changed to UP iwlwifi0: No beacon heard and the session protection is over already... iwlwifi0: linuxkpi_ieee80211_connection_loss: vif 0xfffffe0177eaeec0 vap 0xfffffe0177eae010 state RUN wlan0: link state changed to DOWN iwlwifi0: Microcode SW error detected.
