I've been having issues with the standard MediaTek Wi-Fi/bt card in my sfe16-43 which would 'reset' through a kerneldrivercrash if the Wi-Fi switched channel. I don't know when this started, could be with the update to windows 11 24h2 and subsequent driver updates. I noticed it because my network was upgraded to a new wifi 7 router, which made the crash issue more apparent. It's always the same 6 eventlog entries after which I have to wait/reslect the wifi ssid for a connection. These crashes also occur on non wifi7 routers.
The crashes were mitigated for a bit by reverting to the original 3.30 driver, but it still crashed at startup. Also tried all kinds of settings, like disable roaming, disable powersaving etc., but to no avail.
Replaced the card with an ax210 and it still shows the startup crash and subsequent crashes if it switches channel or has to reconnect. In the event logs it shows as the usbxhci part resetting. Now if I look at the bios version though hwinfo, it shows: AGESA!V9 PhoenixPI-FP8-FP7 1.0.0.2
On the amd site there are mentions of more up to date bios versions.
https://www.amd.com/en/resources/product-security/bulletin/amd-sb-7027.html
mentions PhoenixPI-FP8-FP7 1.1.8.0 (2024-09-19)
Could a bios/agesa update help with this crash issue? Or even just for the solved cve's? Will there be a bios update for the sfe16?
Regards,
Peter
