Description LUIS KROTZ 2017-03-24 14:49:24 UTC
When I use the plasma network manager, generally the wifi keeps on dropping and show very little wifi strength, but using wicd it doesn't happen, with wicd the network is completely stable and with full signal. Is not a driver related issue, because when connecting directly to the network using the terminal it doesn't happen. Bluetooth also not working, but the driver is ok RT2930.

This is my lspci output.

Also, the network manager (not wicd) says not ready to use, the solution is closing the Lid and opening again then wifi is ready to use, but unstable.

I don't really think this is plasma-nm problem, as plasma-nm is mostly just an UI for NetworkManager. Could you please report your issue to NetworkManager bugzilla?
