I mostly use the deck in desktop mode recently as my laptop died and I have it hooked up to a dock with monitor and keyboard.

I’m having a bunch of networking issues lately. Basically the network becomes incredibly unstable after some time and a reboot fixes it. Restarting networking through systemd does not fix the issue. Same with disable / enable networking in the dropdown.

Ping is going as high as 10,000ms where after a reboot it’s 14ms and I’m getting 5-15% packet loss.

The router is about 7 metres away (22 feet or so).

I do suspend quite a bit. System is fully up to date. Just rebooted and now it’s fine.

    Can you test if this happens when you use a network cable or does your dock not come with a network port?

    Do you know what wifi does your ISP router use? Is it 5 or 6? Is it set to 2.4, 5, or 6Ghz?

    How far is it from the router? Does any other device drop connection?

      You’re not going to believe this but someone else commented above that it might be the HDMI cable or monitor and unbelievably they were correct. Ping immediately restored once I unplugged it then went bad again when I replugged.

      I’ve rotated the deck 90 degrees and it’s a lot better.

        Slap a ferrite bead on the cable. It will likely solve the interference issue, and they’re super cheap. You can get a variety pack for like $10 on amazon. They’re handy to have on hand, because an unbelievable amount of consumer-grade electronics are just fucking rawdogging the EM spectrum with unshielded cables and hoping for the best.
