Wifi stopped working after hibernation with ProtonVPN active

Hello guys. I started using Garuda about 4 days ago and everything worked great. Until I booted my pc after hibernating it for the first time while ProtonVPN (proton-vpn-gtk-app from the extra repo) was active. Since then my wifi stopped working. It seems no driver is active anymore. I tried rebooting, modprobing iwlwifi, reinstalling linux-firmware, the linux-lts kernel and nothing seems to solve it. Wifi doesn’t even work on live-usb’s anymore when I boot from those.

Here are some terminal outputs that might be helpful:

Any help is greatly appreciated because I’m totally stumped.

Did / do you have the kill switch enabled in PVPN?

Hi and Welcome,

i dont use Proton vpn btw. or have a account . If like RusselNash say a kill switch is in the app check this first.

did you unplug the power cable from the pc and pressed few times the power button to get rest power of it out. wait 10 mins and plug power cord back on .

Did you checked to try a snapshot restore those 4 days ago if you have one with the snapper tool.

Disconnect ethernet cable or your actually connection to the internet and test this output.

can you check this output?

rfkill list

otherwise did you try to uninstall proton-vpn-gtk ? (and reboot)

sudo pacman -Rdd proton-vpn-gtk-app

actually is there a problem with the Kernel too and your AX200.

you can try the mainline Kernel instead. choose it on the grub boot menu .

sudo pacman -S linux-mainline linux-mainline-headers

your bios looks outdated too…

Yes I did, but disabling and uninstalling ProtonVPN did not help solve the issue. I suspect it did cause it somehow though.

Edit: I meant both disabling the killswitch and the VPN entirely.

You are a hero, thank you so much. The trick with unplugging it and holding the power button did the trick. From what I understand that discharges the motherboard?

I guess the rest of my response doesn’t matter much anymore but I’ll answer anyway.

I did try these 3 suggestions but they didn’t work. Sorry for forgetting to mention so in my first post.

The output before the problem was solved:

0: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no

After it was solved:

0: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no

I did uninstall it using Octopi, then reinstalled it, then uninstalled again using this pacman command just to be sure. Neither worked.

Not sure whether the mainline kernel would have worked since it was solved before I tried it.

Oh, thanks for letting me know. Not sure how to update it on Linux though. But I guess that’s another topic.

Again many thanks, I’m incredibly happy I can use my pc again. I didn’t have access to an ethernet cable so this really saved me.

Good to read it is back on work. Yes you understand it right its also called cold boot :wink:

That happening sometimes to my PC too so i know how to get it back to work but i have a other Mainboard.

The mainline kernel is working without problems if you have wifi internet problems with loading webpages ,DNS and download speed. yeah rfkill list let you easier see if its right or not .

With the update mostly is over Windows. I dont know if its support flash over USB drive like my Mainboard . I did know why i buyed me the Asus lol . On their website they should provide a readme or howto manual :wink:

Glad its back and your happy :hugs:

ps . i use the terminal or pacseek to search for packages to install not octopi it can cause error on installs and also not recommended .
