Unstable Internet connection within "My Network

[ozotto]

Hi

Above , config of my network.

After installation of Tumbleweed I experienced “limited connectivity => no internet” at all of the above connections except printer which currently is not connected. That happens regularly and sometimes I can not connect to the internet at all.

The above network layout was working ! => reliably

Any idea ?

thanks

Ok, so not currently connected to Wi-Fi. I noticed that all of the Wi-Fi networks discovered are on 2.4 GHz, and more than one using the same channel, which could contribute to the instability you’re seeing.

I did a little cleanup
