Description Currently I have the issue that my WIFI disconnects often and after a few seconds it reconnects. This is especially very annoying when doing a video call or a downloading large file.

The following bug report is created shortly after I faced a disconnect / reconnect.

FYI I also tried v2.2.0-alpha, v2.1.0, v1.3.0, v1.20 of itwlm.kext. For all these versions I am facing the same issue.

Update: it seems that I don't have issues when I use my phone as hotspot.

What could be the reason for this?

I can +1 on this.

I have a Killer Ax1650i, which is essentially an Intel AX201.

I also want to report that wifi disconnects happen when the system is trying to scan for other nerworks.

I was able to connect, close the wifi applet and successfully download MacOS from recovery. Disconnects happening only when it scans for other networks.

Edit: I'm using a Killer AX1650i on helios 300, MacOS Monterey, OC0.7.7, AirportItlwm 2.1.0 stable.

@stefan89 The firmware crashed in your case when the driver reasssociates with the network, will need more help from @zxystd.

@kphanipavan @fortoszone Logs are needed to help identify the issue.

Is there a switch so that the computer does not automatically search for other networks?

what's the meaning of 'automatically search for other networks'?

@stefan89 Please try the latest alpha version.

Also posting here that using my phone as a Hotspot has 0 issues while my home network often disconnects or thinks it's connected but has no internet. Tried every version that supports Monterey, no luck

Started happening to me today. Was working fine for a long time. Didn't upgrade any kexts or anything.
