Raspberry Pi 3 Wifi is disconnecting after a moment

Postby bl0ndynek » Sat Nov 18, 2017 10:21 pm

Hi,

After last system upgrade I observed strange behavior. After system restart I can connect to wifi network but it is losing connection after few seconds. After it disconnects I can't see any network or connect.

Anyone has similar problem or has some idea how to fix it?
There is noting in dmesg or journalctl.

I have Raspberry Pi 3 with Armv7h software.

Hey !

I was having the same issue, and then tried to create a fresh install following the exact steps for the armv7 install on RPI3.
I still have the same behaviour.

Only unusual errors in dmesg/journalctl are "power management disabled" repeating messages from brcmfmac.
Even though I have power management disabled with a udev rule.
Firmware version is 7.45.41.23 from Dec 15 2015 18:10:45.

Steps to recreate : follow the installation steps linked above.

I'm glad I found this issue, I'm also having this problem.


After reboot I initially get wifi and it connects, then after a few minutes it disconnects from my network.

I found something else in my journalctl though:

Hardware watchdog 'Broadcom BCM2835 watchdog timer', version 0
failed to set timeout to 600s, invalid argument

RImbaud13 thanks for information that reinstalation didn't help I was about to do it.
I checked various connection manager wifi-menu, netctl, NetworkManager same behavior on all of them.

iwconfig shows that power management is enabled for the rpi3 wifi.

I tried rebooting then running sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off, this turns off the wifi power management, but doesn't seem to stop the wifi from dropping.

I had a usb wifi I used on my rpi2 around, so I connected that and tried it, everything works fine, the connection stays up. It's just the onboard wifi that seems to be broken.

It seems like problem was with linux-raspberrypi pacage. I have upgraded the system and wifi started to work again. The ping was odd because it was between 20ms nad 600ms.

After I blacklisted few modules it is working great.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
blacklist rtlwifi
blacklist rtl8192c_common
blacklist rtl8192cu
blacklist rtl8xxxu
blacklist 8192cu
')

It seems like there was problem with Linux firmware but I am not sure
