This page describe problems observed with "HP EliteBook Revolve 810 G1" during regular usage or tests.

Wireless

There is something wrong with WiFi scanning or network manager implementation. When I log in then device scan for networks and connect to my home WiFi. If there is need to do scanning again (for example when I move laptop to different place) then it looks like scanning is not invoked at all. GUI show stale entries and connection is not established.

Workaround:

sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning | grep SSID

Sometimes it is necessary to invoke this command twice. Then suddenly GUI found WiFi and connect to it.

I think network manager is not invoking scanning properly but it will need more in depth investigation.


Additionally from time to time network manager is not started at all.

Workaround:

sudo service network-manager restart

This is again pointing to network manager. More in depth check needed.
