Hi, I have dual boot, I was using w10 and need switch to kde neon, but when KDE starting the wifi is not working, seach in konsole wifi but is not active. I restart my laptop and now the wifi works.

Exist any configuration to fix this problem when switchs from W10 to KDE?


I have
04:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless 8265 / 8275 [8086:24fd] (rev 78)

I'm guessing here, not using dual boot.
It could be that when you restart from windows 10, it keeps the hardware locked to restart faster.

And then when you do a cold boot, you get access to it in KDE neon.

When you are in win and want to restart. hold down shift when you press the restart button to make a proper restart and hopefully that will work.

You might try disabling Windows Fast Startup, which puts hardware in a hibernation state so that WIndows boots faster. This can cause problems like you are seeing when dual-booting.

Thanks, Claydoh. That fixed it for me as well. I thought I had disabled it and wonder if a M$ update reset it. I had gotten used to booting KDE Neon twice after running Windows 10 to get my network connection running. Unfortunately there are still some things like Turbo Tax and Overdrive that have to be run from Windows.

Tks it works..! but now the problem is with the sound card, and this not happened before. Any idea?
