@RinCat only recently. The thing is I previously used this package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtl8822bu-dkms-git/ but had a similar issue. I then tried this package today and the issue remained.

@MildlyProductive is this happened only recently update, or happened as always? thanks.

Hello, I don't know if this would help, but I am having similar problems as mentioned before. NetworkManager stays stuck on "Setting Network Address" for some time, and then fails with "IP configuration was unavailable".
Rarely, it does successfully connect and works fine for a few minutes, but eventually the connection breaks down and no packets go through anymore.
Here are my logs for unsuccessful connection attempts: https://pastebin.com/CdebGueB
I filtered irrelevant entries but kept those that belonged to NetworkManager or kernel messages that seemed to be related to Wifi in some way.
I'm using NetworkManager on KDE with kernel 5.7

@aquilarubra that's weird, system loaded wrong driver?
aquilarubra commented on 2020-09-19 20:32 (UTC) (edited on 2020-09-19 20:33 (UTC) by aquilarubra)
Got it finally connected. In wicd-client, I had to set Driver to "none" instead of "wext". "rl80211" also works. I have 2 "none" in the list. The second works, the first does not.

I experience the same issue. "Bad password", but password is correct.

@sklorpion Didn't see anything useful. Activation: (wifi) association took too long can be caused by so many things. You may need to reset your WiFi settings to see if any configuration messed up. It also shows as p2p-dev, you are not connect to a standard AP?

It complains about WPA. I'm sure password is ok (like i said i have second wifi card and all works)

If you encountered any problems, set debug log use
echo 5 > /proc/net/rtl88x2bu/log_levelormodprobe 88x2bu rtw_drv_log_level=5, and post your dmesg and network managers logs to https://pastebin.com/ .
