Dec 16, 2021 at 12:14 comment added user10489 If turning it off completely doen't help, draining the battery won't help either. There's never a reason to do that (other than resetting the battery life cycle chip) that can't be accomplished some other way.
Dec 15, 2021 at 13:07 comment added Adrian Bienias 5-10 seconds doesn't help. The laptop was turned off the whole night before I turned it on straight to the Linux with no wifi. Perhaps discharging the battery completely could help but on the other hand, it's not healthy for the battery.
Dec 15, 2021 at 12:55 comment added user10489 Power cycle: turn it off, leave it off for 5-10 seconds, turn it back on. Don't boot windows between turning it on and booting linux. If it's a USB network adapter, you could just unplug it for a few seconds instead, but this is probably an internal one.
Dec 15, 2021 at 12:53 comment added Adrian Bienias I don't get that "power cycle the machine between shutting down windows and booting linux". What do you mean by power cycle?
