I have a Lenovo thinkpad with intel wireless: Cannon Point-LP CNVi [Wireless-AC] 9560. It worked great until I upgraded from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04. Ever since it disconnects from the internet every half an hour.
I tried upgrading the kernel to 5.7 and than down grading to 5.3 I tried playing with the wifi power saver I tried installing the intel suggested driver (9000 v.34) instead of the provided v.46. I tried systemctl disable --now wpa_supplicant.service I tried using arping in crontab And some more stuff I found that was semirelated to my problem
I found sonething interesting in the syslog but couldn't find any help online for it:
