TP Link WN725N and Kernel 5.12.1 freezes

Open Souravgoswami opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Since the Linux Kernel 5.10, I had a awful situation when connecting WN725N to most of my routers, which takes a very long time time and a lot of failures to get connected! It works on one of my routers though:

I am using Archlinux, so I got this driver from AUR, and now I'm stuck with a black screen and no internet after a reboot! Opening a terminal takes a minute (which usually takes < 0.25 seconds).

Unfortunately I wasn't able to uninstall this driver with pacman, but after unplugging the wifi adapter and rebooting (with the computer reset button, normal systemctl reboot doesn't work), I uninstalled it.

I am happy to provide any more information.
