  • I had an issue running Arch on a Surface Pro 3 a while back where Wifi would drop after some hours - I couldn’t ping or SSH in but the device itself could reach the internet.

    I found a post mentioning Wifi power saving mode and disabled it, and it fixed the issue for me. I’ll look and see if I can’t find it, and update here if it looks relevant to you.

    Also, I would definitely try with your laptop wired instead of wireless if you can.


  • Yeah both of those things are still fairly accurate. Its rare it gets hot, but it does get warm when charging or heavy use.

    The battery is still the biggest painpoint, but its gotten so much better. I spent about 4 hours on work calls today, browsed the web a bit, and am now on about 10 hours since it left the charger with 18% left. Not excellent, but usable if you charge it partially midday, which I normally do but forgot today.

    I am optimistic that it will keep improving.
