Suspension on my laptop (closing the lid) causes Wifi to not be available.
Suspension on my laptop (closing the lid) causes Wifi to not be available.
Hi, this is a long lasting problem that I didn't really manage to fix when I started using linux (Mint, Cinnamon). But now that I've been using it regularly for half a year and I have more experience in fiddling around, I'm trying to get it resolved.
Whenever I suspend the laptop (or close the lid, which does it automatically) the Wifi and sometimes an external monitor don't work anymore, I don't know what the problem is. The wifi is fixed by powering on and off again. To fix the monitor sometimes even powering off and on again didn't fix it, I usually waited for the next day and it worked again.
I've no idea of how to fix this (Linux Mint forums didn't help at the time)
Laptop is an MSI GS65-Stealth-Thin-8RF running Linux Mint, with Cinnamon Desktop

You're viewing a single thread.
Do you have Nvidia GPU? I am not sure if that could be related, but sometimes my old laptop would behave funky after resuming it from sleep when using nouveau driver. Although generally I just wouldn't get any video output. But I could never get past login screen, and it sounds unlikely it would affect WiFi, but who knows?
Yes I do, 1070, I've posted more details of my system in an answer and in the main thread. But I use the proprietary drivers not nouveau
@RossoErcole @user224 the easiest might be to keep your desktop awake, no matter what. Maybe sth like this is worth a try?
That's not very efficient though. And I definitely wouldn't put a running laptop into backpack.
