well I just wanted to see if it was a broadcom chip ,,,I thought it sounded like a problem I remember with them ,

but this little bit of info will help some one that may know of Realtek issues ,,,,,,

Try this ins a terminal and rebooting:

sudo iw reg set IN
sudo sed -i 's/^REG.*=$/&IN/' /etc/default/crda

You can also try downloading the deb package from the following link if all else fails:

https://packages.debian.org/sid/all/...altek/download

See the following page for more info:

https://packages.debian.org/sid/firmware-realtek

tried installing this and thank you for the comment. Unfortunately no luck!

Same thing. It seems like if i wait long enough it comes back but then goes out again within a minute or 2.

i've actually been stable for a while now... I feel silly but it was dropbox uploading causing this to happen even though it was no more than 80kb/s uploading for some reason it was causing the networking to fail. I tried scaling it back to 20kb/s and its been totally stable. Still can't connect to a 5g network, but at least it's not constant crashing. Should I report this to dropbox or does this seem normal?

It's worth nothing that many times you can get a USB wireless nic on the cheap, many times for $20US or under. Many are shown to have excellent Linux support. You may want to look at this as an option going forward to avoid future headaches, as there are still some wireless chipsets out there that can cause problems.

Ubuntu keeps a user-generated web page regarding performance of different wireless chipsets :https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wi...CardsSupported

Also, ThinkPenguin stocks networking hardware using only open source drivers. If you went that route, you'd be pretty set w/o worry regarding WiFi. Although not bleeding edge tech (It looks as though standards up through and including Wireless 'N' are supported), should be plenty fast for near any real-world application. Their wireless items can be found here: https://www.thinkpenguin.com/catalog...rking-gnulinux

Edit: added thinkpenguin info.

Actually I was tempted to purchase a USB Wifi attachment but I figured that it would be faster through PCI so I ended up just buying a PCI card :/. I will look into this though, thank you.

Use the "options" in the conf to set the params highlighted in red to 0 (zero).
Then use systemd to restart the network service. (Or log out and back in)
