[Bug 1496091] [NEW] Wifi is very unstable

 

Public bug reported:

My wifi keeps getting disconnected every now and then (every 30seconds
to 1hour).

When using the 3.13 kernel, when it tries to reconnect, my computer
freezes and wont even let me switch to one of the TTY terminals.

With 3.16, 4.0, & 4.2 my computer rarely freezes, but when it does, it
only lasts for a minute.

With the 3.19 kernel I can't even use my wifi.

My OS is Linux Mint 17.2 Cinnamon 64-bit; I originally had been 17.1
installed before I upgraded.

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Incomplete
