Public bug reported:

Hello,

The problem occurs at Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and Asus R510L notebook with RTL8821ae driver. Wifi has the following problems:
- Wifi periodically disconnects and stops working - system reboot needed,
- Around 10-20% of ping packages is dropped,
- dmesg reports a  lot of stuff with rtl8821ae-0.

The above were tested while connecting with Asus,TPlink and Linksys
Access Points.

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
Release:	14.04
$ cat /proc/version_signature
Ubuntu 3.13.0-61.100-generic 3.13.11-ckt22

I attach the following files:
$ dmesg|grep rtl8821ae > dmesg_rtl8821ae.log
$ sudo lspci -vnvn > lspci-vnvn.log

I'd be grateful for any information how to fix the bug.

Best regards,
BN
