The problem is this, when i'm playing these two games in particular, after 15 or 20 minutes the wi-fi completely disappear, no wi-fis being displayed and if i try to turn off and back on it freezes until i wait a couple of seconds for it to unfreeze. The heck is this? I'm using kde manjaro

I see r8169 as module driver loaded, I had this driver crash on my Realtek LAN Port.

I don't know what Wifi module you have, maybe its still the right driver.

I also remember you can install from Flatpak "Linux Driver Probe" https://linux-hardware.org/?view=howto

It will tell you what PC components you have and what drivers are perfectly installed or may be better, or which are missing and its telling you what package or driver you would need. Very userfriendly.

As you use manjaro, just type in Pamac (your software center app) "Linux Driver Probe" or "Hardware Probe"

Its a GUI and a command, so don't get confused by the Link I send to you.

Thanks, i'll install it as soon as i find a new distro to use. Thinking about Debian

If you still like new packages and Arch Linux, you can use EndavourOS. Manjaro is way too weird.

Debian has more "frozen packages" which may still be a good and stable option but as soon as you want the newest packages like GPU drivers and etc then you may encounter issues because debian would probably have a bit older ones. But I guess you can add package repos to get newest things from GPU drivers, not entirely into it.

Best thing, distrohop and try various things out that fit your personality or taste
