Getting random disconnects on my ThinkPads AX200 WiFi and sometimes the wlan0 doesn't even come up and when it does it randomly disconnects. I sometimes see this error on boot.
wlan0: link state changed to UP
lagg0: link state changed to UP
re1: link state changed to UP
wlan0: link state changed to DOWN

My /etc/rc.conf is
# WiFi
ifconfig_re1="up"
ifconfig_iwlwifi0="ether 8c:8c:aa:bd:bb:ef"
wlans_iwlwifi0="wlan0"
create_args_wlan0="country GB regdomain etsi2"
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA"
cloned_interfaces="lagg0"
ifconfig_lagg0="up laggproto failover laggport re1 laggport wlan0 DHCP"
My /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf is
network={
ssid="********"
psk="********"
}
Any ideas ??
