Fix WiFi disconnection issue

Find out the version of the WiFi adapter

inxi -N

# Network:   Device-1: Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet driver: r8169 
#            Device-2: Qualcomm Atheros AR9271 802.11n type: USB driver: ath9k_htc 

In this case the driver version is r8169.

Optional: Install Linux headers

At first, run the next command to find out what the version of headers do you need:

uname -r
# (5.10.7-3-MANJARO)

Install headers; if prompted - select a correct version of headers based on the output of the command above.

sudo pacman -S linux-headers

Install the WiFi driver

sudo pacman -S <driver_version>

# sudo pacman -S r8169
