Possible Regression of RTL8852BE on linux-firmware-realtek

I am using realtek RTL8852BE on a laptop.
After a recent update of the firmware, the wifi disconnects often.

I am using Arch Linux and confirm that the good version of firmware before update was linux-firmware-realtek 20250708-1. rtw89_8852be 0000:01:00.0: Loaded FW: rtw89/rtw8852b_fw-1.bin, sha256:
81c146406dce47cfdf719f88d0fdb13b75cfb651226650722280ab81f7e331f2

The bad version after update is linux-firmware-realtek 20250808-1 rtw89_8852be 0000:01:00.0: Loaded FW: rtw89/rtw8852b_fw-1.bin, sha256:

The commit of the firmware update is
https://gitlab.com/kernel-firmware/linux-firmware/-/commit/

I was using the linux 6.16.1.arch1-1 kernel for both attempts.

Did you use Bluetooth too? Please try 6.17-rc to see if it can improve.

I do have bluetooth enabled but at that moment no bluetooth devices were connected to the laptop. I will try 6.17-rc later.

Please also try to disable power save by
iw wlan0 set power_save off
