I am seeing this on my primary laptop with Linux 5.6. I switched
back to Linux 5.6-rc7 for now. Is this issue introduced in 5.6
when Dave's networking pull? 5.6-rc7 is just fine.

wifi authentication keeps on failing and can't connect at all.

Just about to report this for 5.6 and saw this thread.

thanks,
