On July 10th 2021, I purchased an

HP 15s-eq2147 FHD RYZ5-5 16GB 512 SSD DOS

Since it has no cable connection to the internet, but only access via WLAN, I had at first some problems with setting up the connection, but eventually solved them thanks to Stephan Hemeier's useful rpm

rtw88-kmp-default-git20210702_k5.3.18_57-lp153.2.2.x86_64.rpm

But for about four weeks, the computer happened sometimes to disconnnect from WiFi. Then normally a reboot solved the problem.

But since January 20th, the computer boots always disconnected and rebooting it does not help.

So, I opened Yast, deleted the Wifi adwapter an rebooted the computer. Then I set up the Wifi adapter again, but I got this error message: [...]

You are running an 5.12 kernel, but as you wrote you installed my rtw88 for kernel 5.3. Delete the rtw88-kmp package and reboot. Use zypper for that.

rtw88 is also inside the kernel 5.12 and should work out of the box.

Having followed your advice, I repeated deleting and re-setting up the Wifi adapter in Yast as described above, which worked now without producing an error message. Now, my problem does not persist any more, i.e. I have a wireless access to my router again - thanks a lot! Best regards, Wolfgang
