This is baffling. 1. Can you try continuously pinging the Pi from another device to see if that keeps the "link" up? 2. If 1 is successful, try pinging from...

Disabling power saving might help - "sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off" will do that. Note that this setting does not persist across a reboot - appending it to /etc/rc.local will...

Have you tried the suggestion I made on the other issue?: 1. Download https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/software/network/wireless-regdb/wireless-regdb-2022.02.18.tar.xz 2. Extract `regulatory.db` and `regulatory.db.p7s`. 3. Copy them to `/lib/firmware/`. 4. Reboot.

There's a mixture of explanation and empathy here: https://itsfoss.com/held-broken-packages-error/

That doesn't make sense - the Pi 4 EEPROM loads the same firmware regardless of the OS; it doesn't even know you'll be booting a 64-bit OS.

Are you not talking about the `USB_MSD_LUN_TIMEOUT` configuration setting, as described here?: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/bcm2711_bootloader_config.md

(or one of those)

If you find that there is an inadequate timeout, especially one that can't be modified, then I'm sure we'll be able to add it - that's one of the nice...
