Keep loosing wifi connection

HI everyone.

Ive taken my husbands old laptop, which had windows 10 on it and were pretty slow. Even after an reinstallation.

I figured, perhaps it was time for a Linux based OS and found ChaletOS. I tried to boot it from USB and looked around in the system and liked what I was. Nothing wrong there... Now I have formated the computer and installed ChaletOS completly... But now I experience that the WIFI drops out from time to time... How do I troubleshoot it? I am completly lost in this system

Hope someone can help, thanks! (writting from a wired connection now, but not the general idea with a laptop )

Thanks in advance.

Hello and welcome! Can i please have the make and model of your computer?

Arh yes... Of course! Its a HP Pavilion dv6.

try this:

Code:

sudo bash
cd /etc/modprobe.d
leafpad blacklist.conf

add the following line to the BOTTOM of the file:

Code:

blacklist acer-wmi

SAVE your changes, exit, and restart your computer

Thanks, Ill let you know if it changes anything

ahem, forgot ChaletOS comes with mousepad not leafpad (installed leafpad in my install)

if leafpad blacklist.conf doesnt work use mousepad. hopefully you figured my messup on your own
