Greetings,
I have been using openSUSE for a couple of weeks now and everything was running smooth. When I was installing the OS I was asked to configure my RT3290 Wireless card, but I didn’t because everything was working fine. Today while I was doing some stuff, internet was lost. When I I clicked on “Networks” shortcut no networks were listed…
After this next command
iwlist wlan0 scan
I was used to getting messages like “network down” or related
So after a couple of reboots for some reason now I have wifi and everything is working fine(wireless card is still not configured, tho).
I have a working device ?

Can I stop my wifi form randomly crashing and requiring me to reboot a couple of times every other day or is there a solution ? Should I configure this device? How because I am not allowed to click the Edit button and if I convert the Network Setup method to -> wicked, from where should I get the requred ip and hostname?
PS.Also my bluetooth is not working for some reason(if that is related)
