### Secure Boot

If your system uses Secure Boot, disable it via BIOS settings, otherwise the kernel will not accept user-supplied modules.

### Unstable and drop connection

The problem may be due to periodic scanning of access points by the network applet.

> This fix worked helpful on Pop! _OS/Ubuntu 20.10 and Fedora 33. Both with GNOME and NetworkManager. [#179](https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce/issues/179)
Set the BSSID from your network applet. In GNOME this can be done in `WiFi Settings > Your profile > Identity > BSSID`.

We are going to disable the *Connectivity Check* option in NetworkManager. This by editing the file in `/var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager-intern.conf` and adding the following instructions:

```
[connectivity]
.set.enabled=false
```

at the end.

Then just reboot or restart the NetworkManager unit to fix the problem.
