Hi all, This is a long standing problem for me. Now I have an ASUS K501 UX laptop with Leap 42.2 and KDE. Tha laptop possibly does not matter, since this was the situation with 42.1 on this laptop and 42.1 on a Lenovo and on another kind of ASUS with 42.2. The symptoms: When I boot, wired connection gets initialized, and usable when I plug in the cord. I would expect that if and when the network cable is not plugged, the wifi starts working automatically. This is not the case and rfkill says wireless is hard blocked. I can only get wifi running if I put the system to sleep (with fn+Zz or mains switch), and then wake it up (with Esc or mains switch). Sometimes this should be done twice. There is another twist: boot+put to sleep + waking always works on one condition: the mains (or battery charger) is plugged. In this case closing the lid suspends the system and opening the lid wakes it up. When the charger is not plugged the above sequence sometimes works and sometimes (mostly) not. Closing the lid suspends the laptop, opening the lid either wakes it up or causes reboot. I do not know and understand how and why these phenomena are connected. What the charger plugged in state has to do with wifi start or reboot. It is mysterious why the things sometimes at least partly work and sometimes why not. And the basic question is: why the configured wifi does not start after or during bootup. Any kind of hints or tips are welcome. Regards, Albert
