Hi @logan001

Please provide the output of the following command:

sudo uname -mr; mokutil --sb-state; lsusb; rfkill list all; dkms status; iw dev; iw reg get

Have you updated the driver since moving to kernel 5.19.6? Such as...

$ sudo ./remove-driver.sh $ git pull $ sudo ./install-driver.sh

Regards

FYI: I was able to duplicate the problem while using this driver in AP mode on a RasPi. I'll investigate further as I have time. This old driver is fragile so I could run into issues.

i just realize that i forgot to add it to ignore list in networkmanager. after ignore it, so far (20 minutes) its still working

If you have the time, keep me posted on this. This driver is a challenge to maintain and it stopped when I tested on a RasPi so I need to get to the bottom of that anyway so I will be watching it for a while.
