Hi there,
I know this is a common issue for some but my set up is a bit different.
My new laptop only has USB C ports so I have to use a dongle for HDMI
and other ports. It also has a network port. I guessed that after sleep
it tries to use the network port (I tested i with a cable and I get my
normal speeds) but no there is traffic.
Since I am well away from the router I unloaded the module:
$ sudo rmmod r8152
Then I reloaded wifi one:
$ sudo /sbin/modprobe -r iwlwifi
$ sudo /sbin/modprobe iwlwifi
The result is traffic but at near dial up speeds.
I can reboot and fix it but I would rather:
1) Not have this sleep problem in the first place (perhaps stop r8152
from loading at boot)
2) 1) + the ability to turn on and off the Ethernet if I change desks or
an in an environment without wifi
Thanks
