RTL8821CE wifi driver - can't connect after suspend or change network on Ubuntu 18.04 (Kernel 4.15)












0














I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 in a HP notebook. I downloaded the driver using:



git clone https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce.git


I followed the instructions in the README file for the installation.



The driver worked well after a computer reboot, but if I try to change wireless network or if the computer goes to suspension, network-manager can no longer connect. Network manager sees the ssid of Wi-fi in the air but fails to make the connection. In short, it only works on the first connection.



I've tried restarting network manager, and uninstalling and reinstalling it, but the problem persists. The only solution is restarting Ubuntu, and it is very annoying for me.



How can I resolve this issue?
