Realtek rtl8822ce WiFi - No connection after suspend

As the title says, when I wake the laptop from sleep, the wifi is already disconnected and does not show any available connections in the wifi menu. One other user had the same problem and he used to solve it by going to the network manager and by restarting the wifi module but this does not seem to work for me.
I don't even get the options to turn wifi on or off after this until I reboot.
My MAC address randomization is also turned off since people have been commenting on other posts that it can causes issues with wifi connectivity.
I am using the kde dragonised gaming edition of the OS.

You have provided zero information on your hardware in use.

We cannot help you without this info.

Please read the Garuda wiki regarding filing bug reports. Specifically, we need your inxi output.

Generally this problem can be worked around by using an alternate kernel, using a kernel boot parameter, setting a different idle state in your bios, or writing a systemd suspend service.

We couldn't possibly advise you until we know your inxi output.

Welcome to Garuda.

I ran the inxi -Fxxxza. Here is the output.

As you appear to have a very recent bios date I would assume your hardware is very new. I would suggest installing the linux-mainline kernel first to see if the newer kernel revisions help you.

Thanks for posting your inxi output.

If testing a few different kernels is no improvement I would suggest testing different idle states in your bios.

If you want a proper solution, such as an improved kernel boot parameter to address your suspend issue, then I'd suggest you search your laptop model and mobo number with the additional terms grub kernel boot parameter. This may turn up some promising leads. The Archwiki often contains information on specific laptop model issues, so be sure to also search the Arch Wiki for your laptops model number.

If none of the above helps, I'll help you write a service that may correct your issue if you're lucky.

after wake up is your wifi hardware active or not ???????

How about the output of nmcli dev wifi after resumed? If is empty, I'm afraid it's the driver issue or NetworkManager issue, and you should find some special error logs in journalctl -kb

Thank you. It was a kernel issue and updating to the mainline kernel, it has been sorted out.

It was active. It was a kernel issue and upgrading to the mainline kernel sorted it out. Thank you for the quick assistance!

If you had searched your adapter model on the forum more thoroughly you you would have found the service I’d already written to correct the same issue for your adapter with another user not that long ago.

Here is the post:

That service should work for you after you install the correct proprietary driver and then rmmod and modprobe rtw88_8822ce.

Test the following driver package if you have not already:

rtw88-dkms-git

There has been a lot of kernel problems recently with this driver, both on wifi and bluetooth.

Edit:

Sorry, just saw your posts that you’d solved this with my linux-mainline recommendation. You may want to install the driver I suggested, or simply leave as is. I don’t think this will be the end of your driver problems though, because this driver is not exactly stable yet.

Glad that fixed things up for you, and welcome to Garuda.

PS.

I edited your inxi output for proper formatting. In the future please put three of these symbols ~~~ before and after your terminal outputs for proper code formatting on the forum:
