Environment : arch kde
when i put my laptop to sleep and when i resume it then wifi whole module is gone. so i restarted it but still isnt fixed. I hard rebooted still no luck. This problem is happening in linux mint distro.
I can confirm that this is not hardware issue bcz its working on live boot

Ways i tried to fix it

  • troublehsooting way : pressing power button for 20s when laptop is closed. while doing this step make sure all peripheral is disconnected too. then finally power on laptop normally

  • if above didnt solve issue then simply install wifi driver from yay -Ss rtw . for mine it is yay -S rtw88-dkms-git so install that package and reboot and it would work.

  • using modprobe way (reloading modules)
    lsmod | grep rtw to get wifi module name
    sudo modinfo rtw88-8723de
    and
    sudo modprobe -r rtw88_8723de && sudo modprobe rtw88_8723de

    this is log in dmesg when i m trying to reload module

update : when i installed other package called rtw88-fixed-dkms.git it messed up at grub level so now i cant even use wifi through live boot. when i restart the module rtw88-8723de is gone through and i have to manually load it(though it still dont fix it)
