Just installed Ubuntu 24.04 and my WiFi keeps disconnecting every 20-30 minutes. Running a Realtek RTL8852BE chip. Already tried installing the latest rtw89 drivers from git but no luck.
Anyone dealt with this? Running kernel 6.8.0-45.

Try adding the rtw89 module to your initramfs. That fixed it for me on the same chip. Also check if power management is killing the adapter with tlp.

Had the exact same issue. What fixed it for me was disabling WiFi power saving:
sudo iw dev wlan0 set power_save off
You can make it permanent with a NetworkManager dispatcher script.

Realtek WiFi on Linux is always a pain. If you can, grab a cheap Intel AX210 card. They have mainline kernel support and just work.

The rtw89 driver got a major update in kernel 6.9. If you can install a newer kernel via mainline PPA that should fix your issues.
