WiFi

  • Added backports kernel drivers with version 5.3.6-1 for better WiFi support.
  • Disabled backports drivers for Microsoft Surface Laptop 3.

  • Added new registry key to enable or disable the use of the backport drivers (reboot is needed).

    ParameterUse the newer backport drivers for WiFi
    Registrynetwork.drivers.use_backport_drivers
    Range

    Default (normally use backport drivers) / False / True 

  • Added switch for more aggressively search of configured hidden WiFi networks.

    ParameterForce connection to hidden network
    Registrynetwork.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_force_hidden
    Value

    never / once / continuously

    The default value never preserves the old behaviour.

    Changing can be useful in situations where the system cannot detect any configured WiFi in the environment. If once is selected, the system will blindly try to connect to all configured hidden networks once (until the network as a whole gets started again). In the case of continuously, it will continue trying to connect to hidden networks.

    Remarks: An access point found in this way will be remembered next time and its reconnecting will be faster.  Search for hidden networks in the Wireless Manager is not affected.
