[Bug 1444766] Re: Wifi connection issues

 

Hi

Looking into your dmesg i see that the firmware loaded by the iwlwifi
driver  is version 25.15.12.0 .

>From this page : https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi#firmware  
you can download the latest version, for the 3.19 kernel the 25.17.12.0.tgz is the good one.

Extract it and copy it to /lib/firmware (as root) and reboot.

This solve the issue for me. No more disconnection and perfectly stable.
I hope this will help you !

Title:
  Wifi connection issues

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  1) Ubuntu Version: 15.04 (Vivid Vervet)
  2) Kernel Version: 3.19.0-12-generic

  Wireless: Intel Wireless 7265 (on Thinkpad X250)

  3) I expect Wifi to work as expected without connection drops.

  4) I am experiencing sudden connection drops, which means I am not
  able to connect to anything after a certain time and it seems that it
  only happens after certain amount of data has be downloaded. Although
  the Wifi still appears as connected, it behaves like it isn't.

  Other:
  When I am booting with Kernel 3.16.0-23-generic I do not experience any Wifi connection problems at all.

  (I am not sure if this bugreport is fine, as this is the first time I am reporting a bug here, I will be happy to do improvements to the report if I did anything wrong or provide as much data as possible upon request.)
