Constant Disconnect Wifi

Post by cabellicar123 »

Most of the time when I boot Mint my wireless tries to connect to a network and constantly disconnects and attempts to reconnect again as shown in the Network Manager and in the syslog file. It basically looks all normal and then suddenly disconnects. Now other times I when I boot (now for example as I can post this) the wifi works flawlessly and connects instantly. I did not have this issue with Ubuntu before this and it is strange that it only happens on most startups. Running Mint 17 64 bit with kernel 3.16.0-38-generic. How can I resolve this issue without having to reboot many times and pray it works?

Please generate an overview of your system like this:
- launch a terminal window and make it full screen, to avoid chopped lines;
- copy/paste this command into the terminal:

Code: Select all

inxi -Fxz
(if you type: the letter F is a capital letter)

Press Enter.

Copy/paste the output in your next message.
