I have the problem that after standby mode in Plasma my Wifi connection does not work. In fact I do not see any Wifi connection and the hardware indicator LED of my laptop that shows that Wifi is active is switched off. After a reboot everything works fine and the Wifi connection is established automatically as it should.

What can I do to fix this problem?

Currently I have no time to drill some holes in the house and route a LAN cable (or a DSL cable) to my laptop. I am under high time pressure.

Thank you very much in advance for helping!

Sorry but I cannot give you a quickfix. However you can check if maybe hard or softblock is turned on for your wireless device by typing in a terminal

Code:
sudo rfkill list
In the output of this command take a look a tyour wifi card and see if Hard or Soft Blocked is activated.

If it is blocked you can try what is described here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/737892/h...er-suspend

Code:
nmcli nm wifi on

After some restarts it seems that some days later it worked properly. I do not know why, I did not change anything.

Great. I guess the new kernel makes it work.

Yes, thumbs up! Gradually maui is becoming what I was hoping to find on Linux four years ago ;-)
