Especially on Gentoo, my internet is very unstable. Sometimes it beings faster but generally slow. It downloads nearly 1 MB/sec but often on 30-40 KB/sec. I tested it on Mint-Windows and it was faster than Gentoo. What can I do about that?

raid,
With the help here you fix it. First we need more information
As its OK on mint but not on Gentoo the finger points to your Gentoo install or configuration. Lets try to look at the differences.
Post the following far both installs please.
They should be identical. Differences need to be investigated.
The whole of dmesg. That's big, so its a pastebin each.
We are looking for networking starting.
Describe how you configure, build and install your Gentoo kernel.
If you use a ready made kernel which one?
Describe how you connect to the internet. Wired/Wifi ...
Post the output of form both Mint and Gentoo.
from both would be good too.
Of particular interest is the error report
| Code: | RX packets 198688 bytes 134309823 (128.0 MiB)
RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0
TX packets 129591 bytes 17296657 (16.4 MiB)
TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 |
This should give us a few pointers.

Hi NeddySeagoon,
Thank you for reply. My kernel is Xanmod Kernel which manually configurated. I'm using wifi for connecting to modem.
Here is the lspci results:
Gentoo:
| Code: | 02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless 7265 [8086:095a] (rev 59)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 [Stone Peak 2 AC] [8086:5010]
Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
Kernel modules: iwlwifi |
Mint:
| Code: | 02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless 7265 [8086:095a] (rev 59)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 [8086:5010]

I would like to look into your kernel .config; and that together with the output of "dmesg" (after booting Gentoo).
Please use wgetpaste for both files: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Wgetpaste
(Because you have no errors it could be a problem with regulator db; I also want check some general kernel settings)

raid,
| Code: | CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEVICE_TRACING=y |
Kernel DEBUG options are allowed to interfere or even prevent normal device operation so should not be selected.
Turn those options off and rebuild your kernel.
You way want to wait for pietinger to reply too. He way have more to add about other aspects of the kernel that I have not had time to check.

Thanks for that, I'll try. |

My first question is: Have you emerged net-wireless/wireless-regdb ? (If not please do)
Of course always listen to @Neddy 
These are just notes:
| Code: | [ 0.000000] DMI: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. MS-7C09/H310M PRO-VDH PLUS (MS-7C09), BIOS 1.70 11/30/2020
[ 0.065694] Memory: 16181492K/16644392K available
[ 0.093361] smpboot: CPU0: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-8100 CPU @ 3.60GHz (family: 0x6, model: 0x9e, stepping: 0xb)
[ 0.915838] intel_pstate: HWP enabled
[ 9.580526] vboxdrv: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel.

[ 25.102046] wlp2s0: 80 MHz not supported, disabling VHT |
My remarks:
| Code: | 1.
# CONFIG_X86_INTEL_LPSS is not set
2.
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_USERSPACE=y
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_SCHEDUTIL is not set
3.
CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ=y
4.
# CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is not set
# CONFIG_LRU_GEN is not set
5.
# CONFIG_NL80211_TESTMODE is not set
6.
CONFIG_I2C_I801=y
CONFIG_I2C_ISCH=y
CONFIG_I2C_ISMT=y

# CONFIG_MFD_INTEL_LPSS_ACPI is not set
# CONFIG_MFD_INTEL_LPSS_PCI is not set
8.
# CONFIG_USB_UAS is not set
9.
# CONFIG_INTEL_IDMA64 is not set
10.
# CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP is not set
11.
CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y |
1. Enable it; without every setting in (7) is useless
2. Please read: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger/Tutorials/Manual_Configuring_Kernel_Version_6.6#Part_3_-_Must_Haves
3. You have HWP enabled and dont need it (but it doesnt hurt)
4. I recommend it for more performance; it is in chapter 2 of above link
5. Maybe enable it ... and check out new dmesg
6. You will need only I801 ... but without PINCTRL it is useless ... but if you dont miss anything (soem sensors using i2c) then it doesnt matter
7. You probably will NOT need SCH ... but ICH ... and one of the others ... enabling all 3 gets you on a safe side (see also my remark below *)
8. Enable it
9. Please read (*)
10 Enable it !
11. This was a default in older default kernel configurations. Now it is not a default anymore ... you might disable it because you also have no hardening configurations.
*) My recommendation is always the same when doing a manual kernel configuration: Boot with an UbuntuLiveCD and check all modules with "lsmod" ... If you dont find IDMA64 then your system does not use it ... the same with PINCTRL and MFD (be aware: INTEL_LPSS is configurred statically into the kernel in most distributions).

| Emerged wireless-regdb. I configured the kernel according your suggestions. It's stable for now. I'll see what will happen in future. Thank you for all replies. |
