Hi,
I am able to connect to my AP and everything works fine for a little while, but after a few minutes pages refuse to open. It’s like host resolving never finishes, BUT directly pinging an IP doesn’t work either - destination host unreachable. The connection to the AP is not lost. I can manually turn wifi on and off through a laptop button and then everything is back to normal. Another option is to wait for a minute and then it “fixes itself”.
This is a new 12.1 (KDE) install. Beforehand, an Ubuntu install was not having these issues so I know it’s possible, somehow, to make it work.
Thanks in advance.
Additional information as requested in the stickies:

I don’t have ideas on how to fix this.
