Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
I built a Steam Machine with the following parts:
- Case/PSU/Mobo: Asrock Deskmeet X600
- CPU: AMD R5 7500F
- GPU: PowerColor RX 9060XT Reaper 16GB
- RAM: 2x 8GB Whalekom DDR5-5600
- SSD: 1TB Ediloca EN870 Gen4x4
- Cooler: Deepcool AN400
The wifi stops working whenever I put SteamOS to sleep. No AP will show up under Wifi. The only workaround is to shut SteamOS down and perform a cold boot.
My wifi card is and internal Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168 model.
Steps for reproducing this issue:
- Put SteamOS to sleep eityher by power button or Steam Menu > Power > Sleep
- Wake the system by pressing spacebar or the power button
- Wifi stops working.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the reported sequence on the listed SteamOS and Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168 setup: sleep from the power button or Steam menu, then wake it. Investigate the sleep/wake networking path; done means Wi-Fi resumes after wake and access points appear without requiring a shutdown and cold boot.
