Device loses internet connection upon restart or power-off.
Hey everyone, I'm trying to figure out a problem with my Steam Deck. Just got it, and I've noticed some odd behavior when I restart or turn it on after a shutdown. Even though the Wi-Fi light is on and there are no error messages, SteamOS sometimes says I have no internet or it's offline. I checked online for help, but nothing matches what I'm experiencing. I tried resetting the auto-connect setting and making sure both modes are enabled, but that didn't fix it. I also installed Windows for dual boot, which reconnects after shutdowns, and I've made some internal changes like a bigger SSD and GuliKit joysticks. Still, SteamOS keeps acting weird. I'm pretty sure the Wi-Fi hardware is fine since Windows works without issues. It's just this persistent disconnect issue that's really annoying—it feels like something should be wrong but isn't.
