That's seems like a pretty specific issue. Did you try other networks or was always just one 2.4ghz network?
Lots of devices will kill their own battery to maintain Wifi connection rather than drop.
When is happened to me, it's always a combination of a specific place I'm sitting and a specific wifi access point.
I haven't, myself, noticed it happen to my SteamDeck, though.
It happens on any 2.4ghz network. I'm apparently not the only one, as there are some old reddit posts about it, too. It's an oddly specific problem and I can't figure out if it's a software issue or if my battery really is borked.
